This is a new format for ALHFAM and the Mid-Atlantic Region – by combining active, hands-on workshops with the regional meeting, we are answering needs expressed in the Skills Assessment Survey. Almost every ALHFAM Professional Interest Group is represented (except the "Indigenous Interpretation and Issues" group, which was introduced on Sept. 2), from Foodways to Machinery, FARM to HAT, FPI to PIE, HiTS to CPR.
