Dear Friends, Colleagues, Business and Community Leaders:
 
Let me take this opportunity to personally invite you to register and attend this upcoming National Character Conference to be held right here in Abbotsford.  I am honoured to have been part of the organizing committee and its sponsor, Character Abbotsford as the goals and vision of this conference align with the principles and values of Abbotsford Restorative Justice. It is my sincere hope that you will consider joining us for what I believe will provide an engaging and powerful opportunity to hear from respected speakers, participate in interactive break-out sessions and dialogue with people from across Canada. Register early and don’t miss out on the early bird rate as well as being a part of this national event to learn more about the value and impact of character in our personal lives, at work,  in our communities, and across our nation.  Please see the attached document and conference link below for your consideration.
