ASHI’s 2013 Leadership Training Conference will be held October 17 & 18, 2013, at the Fountain Bleu Conference Center, which is just adjacent to the Radisson Hotel in Des Plaines, IL. ASHI has obtained a room block at the Radisson Hotel for the low guestroom rate of $99/night (plus taxes), which includes the breakfast buffet.
