NAEHCY 2007 Annual Conference
Blazing Trails and Moving Mountains

NAEHCY 19th
Annual Conference
Oregon Convention Center
Portland, OR
November 10-13, 2007
The 2007 NAEHCY Annual Conference, Blazing Trails and Moving Mountains,
was a great success, featuring a full schedule of informative presentations,
inspiring keynote speakers,
and
opportunities to engage with colleagues from around the country. Participants
attended
valuable sessions on
effective
school and community responses to homelessness, including practice-based
strategies
for implementing the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act and related legislation.
They had the opportunity to hear
from the 2007 LeTendre Scholarship recipients, which is always one of the highlights
of the conference. Finally, some attendees participated in a special
child
welfare
track,
sponsored
by Casey Family Programs,
devoted
to
the
education
of
children in foster
care.
