The Pregnancy Help Institute has provided thousands of pregnancy help leaders with professional training over the years. Over time, this training has been adding key elements vital to the pregnancy help movement as services expand.
And this year is no different. Our 2022 Pregnancy Help Institute will be July 25-29 in Columbus, OH.
We realize you've been to conferences before, but the Pregnancy Help Institute is different. Organized under three intensive tracks (New Director, Development, and Leadership), the Pregnancy Help Institute integrates executive-level instruction in a small-group environment, where you'll have the unparalleled opportunity to process information and strategies with experts and fellow front-line pregnancy help leaders.
