Aspire is virtual. And you're invited!
Every year we hold a volunteer retreat and conference in Northern California. The purpose of the event is to deepen our relationships with our volunteers, celebrate the beautiful community we belong to, and discuss topics related to development and personal growth.
The unique circumstances facing all of us this year have forced us to innovate. We’re moving Aspire online, and you’re invited to be a part of a 2 week conversation on: Resilience.
See Schedule Below
