2024 C3KC Conference
April 2, 2024
The Junior League of Kansas City, Missouri, invites you to our 2024 C3KC Conference, where we bring together the civic, corporate, and nonprofit communities to spark change for a better Kansas City.
Disparities occur across many dimensions, including race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, age, location, gender, disability status, and sexual orientation. Differences in care and resources limit overall gains in quality of life and health. Our speakers and panels will be discussing health equity, houselessness, foster care, early care and education, mental health trauma, and workforce solutions.
This conference is open to the public. More information is here.
