FOCAL’s 41st Annual Conference Weekend Success!

FOCAL had an incredibly thought-provoking and meaningful 41st Annual Conference Weekend! Our theme this year was Family Engagement: Building Sustainable Health, Wealth and Spiritual Healing. We thank all our FOCAL family and friends for coming out and making it a memorable weekend. Enjoy the photos and video clip and have a Happy Thanksgiving from the FOCAL Staff!
