The AIRA 2024 National Meeting took place last week, May 7–9, and boy was it a meeting to remember! The two-and-a-half-day meeting was spent collaborating, networking, and learning from one another. I want to extend my gratitude to all the attendees, sponsors, board directors, and of course, AIRA staff who work so hard to bring us all together for one of my favorite weeks of the year. Meetings like this could not be made possible without your unwavering support, collaboration, and dedication. If you were unable to attend this year’s National Meeting or catch the official announcement of the 2025 National Meeting, don’t worry. We look forward to hosting you April 29–May 1 in… Spokane, Washington!
