2021 DPAC Summit Resources

We invited our DPAC Executive teams to join us for our annual DPAC Leadership Summit via Zoom on November 19-20, 2021. Thanks to all who attended Friday afternoon and all day Saturday and for making our 2021 event another resounding success! Thank you for bringing your passion and commitment and shared their thoughts and ideas which enabled rich and respectful dialogue. We appreciate you taking time away from your family to join us. We strongly encourage you to share the information you learned at the Summit and these presentations with your PACs and parents.
