About the NLC-RISC Trustees Conference
The annual NLC-RISC Trustees Conference provides an opportunity for pool executives and governing board members, also known as trustees, to learn about emerging trends impacting pooling organizations. The conference presents workshops, programs, and resources designed to help trustees fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities to the pool and execute the mission of their organization. This conference offers great opportunities to network with fellow trustees from across the country—all in a non-competitive, collaborative environment!
Plan Your Conference Experience with PheedLoop
PheedLoop, the official conference website for the Trustees Conference, is now live. Attendees can view the full agenda, including complete session and speaker listings with descriptions, to see what sparks their interest. PheedLoop will also be used throughout the conference to share important announcements and reminders, including event locations and upcoming sessions.
The platform also includes a curated Things to Do guide with 60+ local recommendations—from activities and museums to dining, coffee, and drinks—along with a custom Google Map that can be downloaded to a mobile device for easy, on‑the‑go navigation.
A mobile version of the platform will be available to attendees beginning May 1. If you would like early access, please contact Sophie DeHoff.
