An opportunity will be provided for affinity groups and collaboratives across the MPN network to delve deeper into policies specific to their issue areas with facilitated discuss with issue experts. 

As our network continues to explore how our individual and collective support can fit together to yield the greatest impact, we invite members to join us and keynote speaker Rev.
