Let's Talk About Hoarding
We held a conference in 2019 for anyone affected by hoarding behavior. Our conference featured a person who spoke about their personal experience with hoarding, a family member of a person who hoards and Wade Crandall, a Mental Health Therapist. These speakers were followed by a Q & A with a panel pictured here made up of some of our members who work with people who hoard in various fields.
