Why Florida amid the political climate there?
LMA is mindful that many of our members live and work in Florida. While our conferences are contracted well in advance, LMA's commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion remains consistent regardless of the physical location of this conference. In fact, we plan to use our presence in Hollywood, Florida, for the 2023 LMA Annual Conference to show support to the local community, as an LMA tradition, but also this year, the LGBTQ+ community locally and within the state. Watch for more details on our support efforts and activities.
