Comparing Value and Investment: Why Our Conference Stands Out
When comparing our registration fees and offerings to other international conferences, the 2025 International Families and Fathers Conference offers exceptional value:
-
Comprehensive Package: Our fees include meals, access to all sessions, exclusive events (like the Red Tie Gala and Santa Monica & Hollywood Bus Tour), and various specialty training options, making it a holistic experience for all attendees.
-
Affordable Pricing: With early bird rates starting at just $429 for in-person attendees, we are competitively priced compared to other industry conferences. For instance, similar events from organizations have comparable fees starting at $650 for their 2024 national conference.
-
More Inclusive Experience: While other conferences may charge extra for meals, networking events, or specialized training, our event provides everything you need in one convenient package. Additionally, we offer free access to the QPR Suicide Prevention Program, a unique feature not often found at similar conferences.
