Our 22nd Annual HJ Sims Late Winter Conference examined trends and developments critical to the success of senior living communities and charter school facilities. An extensive and thoughtful agenda was compiled to address financing methods and operating strategies that can help alleviate existing challenges and encourage continued growth in the non-profit and proprietary sectors of our industry. Throughout the conference, we delivered a dynamic group of speakers and experts committed to sharing thought-provoking views and providing profound insight.
