In late 2019, we started planning our annual 2020 Promoting Peace conference with an emphasis on the topic of "racial equity and relationships." Finally, our conference is going to happen!! As anticipated, delays in the conference were mainly due to COVID issues and precautions.
Our Waseca Promoting Peace Conference will be held on September 21, 2022 at The Mill in Waseca. Check in will start at 8:15 am. Registration is required and can be done on the Eventbrite website under the title, THE INTERSECTION OF RACE, JUSTICE AND PEACE-WASECA. A full list of presenters and agenda can be found there as well. https://www.eventbrite.com/.../the-intersection-of-race...
