Auburn 2026 Spring Conference Registration
It’s time to make your voice heard, and be part of shaping the future for Adult Family Home providers!
Our 2026 Spring Conference: In Good Hands — Advocacy & Guidance You Need to Thrive registration is now LIVE! This is your moment to connect, engage, and influence the issues that matter most to your work and the residents you care for.
We’ve heard your feedback, the Council needs to listen more closely to members, and we completely agree. This conference is your chance to speak directly with the Council about what should be prioritized, from regulatory and legislative issues to CBA advocacy and beyond.
Did you know CBA negotiations officially begin in mid-May? We want your voice guiding those discussions! Come share what communication requirements from the department would help your business thrive, what new programs could strengthen quality of care and provider support, and, most importantly, what does fair compensation look like for the vital care you provide every day?
Your feedback will directly shape our advocacy and negotiation priorities. This is your chance to ensure policy decisions reflect your experiences, challenges, and vision for the future of Adult Family Homes.
A Day Packed With Value, Fun, and Opportunity
