Project 1.27 is excited to offer a local, in-person Hope for the Journey Conference
in partnership with Show Hope! 
 

The Hope for the Journey Conference (formerly the Empowered to Connect Conference) encourages and equips parents and caregivers to meet children's everyday needs. 

This 1-day event is an excellent way for biological, kinship, foster, and adoptive families and professionals who work or volunteer with children to be refreshed, invest in trauma-informed training, and connect with people who share a heart for helping children grow and thrive.
  

We are excited to offer Finally Home's Superhero Academy during the conference! Children aged 0-12 can come for a fun day of crafts, games, and snacks while learning about communication. Trained volunteers will guide children through engaging SuperHero themed crafts, activities, music, and small group discussions.  

Teens will be able to join at both locations for a fun day connecting with other teens and engaging in fun activities!

HOW MUCH ARE TICKETS?
We are offering this conference as a way to encourage families, professionals, and volunteers who work with children who've experienced trauma, so we have tried to keep the price low.
