Does anyone know the date for the 2020 ACEs conference (i assume it is going to happen). Trying to plan for continuing education at work.
Thanks!

Do you mean the Beyond Paper Tigers Conference that CRI hosts? Details are here if so

Resilience Through Diversity: The Power of Trauma-Informed DEI Practices
The Community Resilience Initiative is pleased to announce the 2020 Beyond Paper Tigers Fifth Annual Conference at the Centennial Hotel in Spokane, WA.
Conference Dates: June 24-25, 2020 (opening social/network on June 23, 2020). Plans underway to offer pre-conference trainings of Courses 1, 2, and 3 on June 22-23, 2020.
Can anyone tell me what 'DEI' refers to (i.e, this conference relates to 'trauma-informed DEI)? Thanks!

"Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion"
Melissa, do you know what the registration cost will be for the conference? (even approximately)

I'm not too sure; last year they had the pricing announced I believe around December and there was early-bird pricing until Feb/March-ish. They also offered their Trauma-Informed training the day prior which changed the cost if you chose to attend. I'd definitely suggest signing up for their newsletters! I have been receiving the updates via email
As far as I know, there's no national conference in the works for 2020, however there are state conferences that are often broad enough to make them useful for people who don't live in those states, and we post them in the calendar section.
There are also regional conferences.
If people are interested, we can post a list of state ACEs/TI conferences in the State ACEs Action community. What do you think?

I think that would be very helpful to have them compiled in one place!
I received word that there will not be a 2020 ACEs conference. With Dr. Burke Harris in her new position, the center is focused on on-line trainings at this time as they continue to transition away from her leadership.
DEI is diversity, equity and inclusion. It is among to the tools we’ve created to help communities ensure “everyone is at the table.”

Does anyone know if there is a National ACEs conference planned for 2021?
I haven't heard of any plans for a 2021 conference, Jess. I think people are likely to wait a few months before starting to plan. And I think that most people will be looking at state or regional conferences, to start.
