You name it, Chicago’s got the best of everything—not to mention 26 miles of lakefront along stunning Lake Michigan. Few cities in the world can match the character and culture of Chicago. We chose this city for our 15th National Conference with you in mind. Not only is Chicago conveniently located for travel from anywhere in the U.S., Canada, and abroad, but this is a city with great choices in food, museums, music, shopping, and fun!
We have planned an outstanding program for you. Top experts in mother baby nursing offer an exceptional educational opportunity. Poster presenters fill in the program with interactive dialog to enhance your conference experience and enlighten you as to what’s going on in mother baby units across the country and around the world.
