Presenters will receive a complimentary conference registration for the day of their presentation. Due to the high cost of travel, CMHA is not able to reimburse workshop presenters for mileage. If presenters are not able to participate due to lack of reimbursement, special arrangements may be made with CMHA when you are notified of your accepted proposal.
