This list includes the principal volunteers who have been instrumental in seeing the program through to fruition. There are many others who were involved in the early stages of program
development who are too numerous to list, but whose efforts we would also like to recognize. We would like to thank all of the organizations and agencies that provided time so their volunteers
could participate in making this a successful conference.
