SSDN's Annual Meeting is a face-to-face opportunity for members to share new ideas.
SSDN’s Annual Meeting brings together local government professionals from across the Southeast to exchange ideas and build relationships around sustainability. This member-driven, in-person event centers on sharing lessons learned, and real-world experiences. Members engage in dynamic discussions and explore the host city’s local culture.
