We are planning on making RISE an annual Fall event, but we are not sure about events before then. There definitely won’t be another conference before then (the planning process is way too intensive), however we are talking about having some kind of mini-events after the conference.

To stay informed on what we are up to, check our blog regularly, join our Facebook group, and/or join our email listserv by emailing info@riseconference.org.

Thank you for quick response Kate. I posted this same question by mistake on the registration page. Please ignore. Will there be any other upcoming events like this? In the Winter or Spring perhaps?
Thank you again,
TRaci

Hi Traci,
We would have preferred to do a Saturday, but unfortunately because space is at such a premium in NYC this was the only date that was available in the fall. Our organizing committee is primarily professional social workers, and based on our experience most jobs encourage attending conferences as professional development. I hope that you will be able to convince your boss to give you the day off so you can join us!

Feel free to email me at kate@riseconference.org if you have any more questions.

Best,
Kate Barrow, LMSW
Conference Chair

This seems like an absolute grea opportunity to network and gain wonderful information that we may not receive any place else. However, did you consider having this event on a Saturday or Sunday so that working adults would not have to take a full day off from work? Because of this, I’m not even sure if I can attend!
