We'll be back at the Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina in San Diego, CA from January 12-14, 2026 for the 2026 Every Child Counts Symposium.

60 or 75 minute breakout sessions will be held on:

Monday, Jan 12th | Tuesday, Jan 13th | Wednesday, Jan 14th

SELECTION CRITERIA: Proposed presentations will be evaluated on how relevant and practical the presentation will be to our attendees. In addition, presentations will be evaluated on description of clear, measurable learning outcomes. Workshop learning activities should provide opportunities for participants to practice skills identified in the learning outcomes. Proposals should provide evidence to support that the workshop is relevant, timely, and likely to contribute to professional development of attendees.
