Sandwiched KC invites you share your products, programs, and services with those who need them.

Our conference will feature Resource Shopping (aka Vendors/Exhibitors) so that family caregivers who attend the conference can learn about goods and services, programs, and resources in the community that can help them meet their needs as they are caring for a loved one. We will have several opportunities for attendees to visit with you.

Vendor fee: $250
Sandwiched will invoice you upon confirming your participation in our event.

Deadline: September 30, 2023 OCTOBER 20, 2023
