In 2007, UEDA committed itself to not only continuing the Annual Community Development Summit, but to also holding Quarterly Gatherings that feature various topics and issues of interest to our members and partners. Scroll down to the Event Archive below, and you can access copies of program books, summaries and presentations from previous Summits and Quarterly Gatherings. As we plan for upcoming events, we welcome suggestions and ideas from those in the UEDA Community, so please feel free to contact Bill at (414) 562-9904 or bill@uedawi.org.
