Lifespan Respite Grantee and Partner Learning Symposiums
Learning Symposiums
Most years, the in-person Lifespan Respite Grantee and Partner Learning Symposiums are held in conjunction with the National Lifespan Respite Conference. The day-long Symposiums provide an opportunity for peer-to-peer exchange and learning among current and former Lifespan Respite grantees and their primary partners. Guest presenters may also join the meeting to provide guidance or expertise on a specific topic.
Bring, Brag and Borrow
The Bring, Brag, and Borrow session is a favorite part of the Lifespan Respite Grantee and Partner Learning Symposium. In recent years, it has been held virtually prior to the in-person Learning Symposium. The Symposium is designed to maximize networking opportunities and provide valuable peer learning and exchange of resources. In the Bring, Brag and Borrow session, each state Lifespan Respite grantee or partner (one from each state) provides a quick 5-minute highlight of a Lifespan Respite grant or coalition activity from the past year. Read more and watch the Bring, Brag and Borrow videos under each of the Learning Symposiums below. The BBB resources shared by each state can be found here as well.
