State Solutions. National Impact.
September 19-22, 2022 • Atlanta, GA
Dear John,

One of the most valued parts of SPN Annual Meeting is the opportunity to learn from each other. We'll be recognizing some of the Network's best successes at A Celebration of Success: Annual Awards Dinner and Presentation on the Wednesday night.

In addition to celebrating state think tanks' success at the Awards Dinner on Wednesday night, this year's agenda offers a variety of options to explore what’s working in other states and which organizational strategies are yielding the best outcomes. I've highlighted a few below.

You won't want to miss these insights! Take advantage of our discounted early bird registration rates and complete your registration ([link removed]) by June 30.

Looking forward to welcoming you to Atlanta!
