Why I Belong 
Celebrate your membership! We asked members at region conferences and elsewhere to share why they belong to PATH Intl. 
 
"I belong to PATH Intl. because I love the education, support and connection with other like-minded/gifted individuals with a love for helping others and their equine partners."   
Nancy Leslie
 
Thank you, Nancy! 
2020 PATH Intl. Conference Re-imagined, Save the Date! 
Prior to the pandemic and the subsequent canceling of the PATH Intl. Conference and Annual Meeting, the Health and Education Advisory had selected exceptional sessions from almost 100 abstracts submitted by international-quality experts. The association never lost sight of the importance of making this valuable education available to members.

blue and white logo for webinar series As a result, in lieu of the international conference, this year PATH Intl. will provide three different webinar series through fall and winter. Each series will feature a unique area of focus and will be presented by the experts whose abstracts were chosen for the international conference! The choice of series will include program (September), disability (October) and administrative (January). Each five-week series will include one webinar per week and require no travel!

Member discount price: Only $149 for the full five-session series!
Standard price: $199

The PATH Intl. Annual Meeting typically held at the international conference will be held virtually in November allowing access to all members! The meeting will be preceded by a panel discussion with the EAAT Baseline Definitions Work Group. The annual meeting and panel discussion will be free for all members.

Watch for more information about all of the above soon!
