WVONL 2024 Spring Conference

WVONL Spring Conference is scheduled for March 22, 2024, at the Flatwoods Conference Center. Make plans now to connect with leaders and aspiring leaders across the state to share ideas about leadership, mentoring, and other current topics facing leaders today.

There will be panel discussions through the day for attendees to share and learn from one another. There will also be a legislative update and information from AONL.
