This year’s FACES Conference is dedicated to equipping families, educators, and community members with tools and knowledge to support student success while facing real-world challenges. Through sessions on military CCMR, first offender programs, substance use awareness, Narcan training, human trafficking prevention, dyslexia, mental health, opioid misuse, positive behavior supports, understanding disability categories, and resources for military families, we aim to empower parents and communities to create safer, stronger, and more supportive environments where every child can thrive.
