Welcome to the in-person 2023 PAEOP Spring Conference, with all the excitement and challenges it may bring! As we try to get back to normal after the last two years, my theme will be “Be the Light SHINE, “ whether you want to think of yourself as a lighthouse, flashlight or even a candle. We all need some light as we emerge from our pandemic days. If you’re not feeling it today, your light is dim or burned out, our presenters will help to make you feel refreshed, revived, and ready to shine again. We can all help each other to shine!
