Call for Speakers: Mpact Transit + Community Conference

As part of our work managing the Arizona Partnership for Healthy Communities, we are proud to be a part of the National Steering Committee for the planning of the annual Mpact: Transit, Mobility, and Community Conference to take place November 5-8, 2023. We're especially excited because this year's conference will take place here in Phoenix, and we look forward to offering the very best projects, initiatives, and innovations our communities and partners have to offer.

Please consider submitting a proposal for this year's Call for Speakers and share with your networks. Contact Program Officer David Longoria, dlongoria@lisc.org, if you have questions or ideas.
