2019 Conference Highlights
The 2019 CORE National Conference, co-hosted by Children’s Home, Inc and Arkansas Baptist Children’s Homes, was held October 15-17 at the Doubletree Hotel in Little Rock, Arkansas.
The theme was: “Moving Forward – Forever a Resource for Children and Families.” The conference was well attended with 84 registrations representing over 30 member agencies and a few non-member agencies. The Catherine Hershey Banquet on Wednesday evening was enjoyed by many and those in attendance were entertained and blessed as Sean Milner, The Baptist Children’s Village (BVC), shared his personal story of his 18 years growing up at The BCV.
