Breaking Boundaries Agenda
Take Home a Bit More Than “Swag”
Dr. Paul C. Light will open the conference, help guide the breakout sessions and facilitate the closing plenary. Light is considered one of the nation’s leading thinkers on the trends and challenges of the nonprofit sector.
“Greater Louisville achieves 55,000 new college degrees!”
“Area moves from bottom 10 to top 10 in percentage of people with healthy lifestyles!”
Can we say the nonprofit sector is committed to helping achieve these 2020 headline stories?
CNPE is betting yes. That’s why we are introducing an action-packed day on November 1st to lead the charting of a collaborative map to help reach 55,000 degrees and achieve dramatically better behavioral health profiles in our community. Your organization is invited to help create that map.
This conference, more than any other, needs organizations and individuals committed to this community’s dream – that is, to become the idea capital of the world, where imaginations and all individuals thrive – to attend and help chart new collaborative maps for breakthrough results in education and health.
