Texas APCO and Texas NENA joined forces at last year's conference which marked the beginning of what will surely be a long-lasting partnership; now we are looking forward to another successful conference in Houston. While budgets are still tight this year, we believe that by focusing on the three values outlined in this year's conference logo, it will be one of the best conferences ever:

  • Educate - We will continue to provide superb educational sessions and top notch vendors will combine to make ours the most knowledgeable membership in the Nation.
  • Enlighten - We will spark the imaginations of our members and inspire them to be even better public servants.
  • Empower - We will give our members the tools they need to continue to make a difference in their communities and to grow both personally and professionally.

We invite attendees, sponsors, and vendors to join us for the 2013 TX APCO/NENA Joint Conference & Awards, because together we will Educate, Enlighten and Empower Texas!

We look forward to seeing you there,

Yvonne Krumm, ENP, Texas APCO President
Cindy Bridges, ENP, Texas NENA President
