National AgrAbility Project

Saturday, September 16 is the last day to reserve a hotel room for the regional workshop, Malama the Farmer, Caring for Yourself and Each Other, that is taking place at the Grand Naniloa Hotel in Hawai'i, October 17-18. Hotel reservations can be made by clicking on the hotel name above. This workshop is being planned in conjunction with WRASAP and the University of Hawai'i and will focus on behavioral health resources, assistive technology, preventing injury, and business planning. Registration is open. For more information and the registration link, see NAP website under Training and Events, or click here.

The requests for proposals and posters for the 2024 NTW are due November 1 and are available on the NTW Website. The event will be at the Grand Hyatt Atlanta/Buckhead, March 25-28, 2024. Rooms can be booked at the per diem rate of $173+taxes/fees by clicking on the hotel name above. Staff should be thinking about sessions that they would like to present or people they might want to contact about sessions. Anyone with an idea for a session, but who doesn't know who could present it, let Tess know and she can survey the planning committee. Each SRAP will again be asked to stipend a farmer before the NAP will consider any stipends from that state. Now is a good time to reach out to local organizations to see if they can help stipend a farmer to come.
