Join us for the 2020 virtual Human Services Policy Advisors Institute. Each year, NGA convenes governors’ human services policy advisors, and secretaries and directors of state human services agencies to highlight state innovations and best practices for serving children and families across the country. The policy institute will provide an opportunity for attendees to learn about the factors that are shaping human services work in the U.S., along with showcasing innovative approaches to addressing some of the most pressing challenges faced by states.
This year’s virtual series is designed to help state leaders engage national experts and learn from the experience of their peers in other states. Each session will provide time for attendees to network with colleagues from across the country and learn about challenges and successes in other states.
This event is open to governors’ human services policy advisors, and secretaries and directors of state human services agencies. To register for this event or if you have any questions, please email Claudia Bonilla (cbonilla@nga.org).
