Long time participants at Philadelphia Trans-Health Conference confess that our diverse and expansive programming is not the top reason they keep coming back. It's the people -- reconnecting with old friends and meeting new ones. It's networking with peers and colleagues -- relationships you take with you when you go home that sustain you the rest of the year. It's that time you spent lingering in the hallway -- talking with someone who can really understand what you are going through, because they've been through too!
