What's New

• • Virtual discussion forums and in-person peer exchanges will also be offered beginning in Spring 2023. Discussion forums will be standalone, virtual events for ~10 participants to present briefly and talk about a predetermined topic. Announcements will be sent to advertise these events and interested parties will be asked to submit a brief application to participate. Peer exchanges will be in-person, 1.5 day events involving a small number of agencies, and will take place onsite at one of the participating agencies. An announcement will be sent when the TAM Program begin accepting requests for peer exchanges.
