Regional Resiliency

We are thrilled to announce the theme for our 25th will be “Regional Resiliency”

At this year’s conference, we will collaborate and learn innovative ways to enhance the ecological resiliency of the Sierra in the face of climate change.

Please join us for this lively three day conference event. We are planning a progressive, provocative agenda, with many networking opportunities, and fun to be had throughout!
