From one of my favorite organizations, the Ontario Healthy Communities
Coalition - a very special and energetic event happening next week -
June 19-20 in Orillia Ontario.

If at all possible - plan now to take part in the Sunshine Conference.
It will be of special interest to all groups who are working on
developing and maintaining a coalition, finding funding, working with
diverse communities and dealing with conflict resolution.
