Affinity Session for LGBTQ Educators
Seattle Convention Center - 619
Affinity sessions are exclusive communities that bring together like-minded individuals with common interests or identities. These sessions provide a unique space for meaningful open discussions to connect and collaborate. Attending an affinity session means joining a supportive community where you can engage with peers who understand your perspective, share insights, and foster valuable connections beyond the conference.
We invite you to stop in and connect with other educators to network and learn from each other.
