Each year, the National Organization for Human Services (NOHS) equips hundreds of helping professionals, agencies, colleges/universities, and students to be transformed through human services. One of the primary ways that NOHS equips attendees is through the diverse resources offered in their exhibit hall. !WHY EXHIBIT? NOHS National Conference attendees represent the most progressive and exciting helping professionals in the United States. The organization is comprised of human service professionals, psychologists, social workers and counselors. NOHS members and affiliates live and work among the urban, suburban and rural poor; they are on the front lines serving under-resourced communities. From local engagement to national advocacy, NOHS members are at the forefront of the movement to implement a social policy and agenda. !Post-conference surveys from past conferences indicate that more than 99% of conference attendees visited the exhibit hall and that more than 90% of exhibitors wanted to exhibit again through NOHS. If you desire to promote your opportunities to some of America’s brightest thinkers and community development practitioners, the NOHS National Conference is the right place. !A Profile of National Conference Attendees, 2015, Charlotte, NC

!What Kind of Exhibitors Are We Seeking?

It is our goal to ensure that the exhibit area is full of useful, tangible tools that our attendees can take back to their academic institutions and communities. For this reason, we seek a wide array of organizations, institutions and businesses to promote opportunities, products and services that will appeal to our members and equip them to do their work more effectively. Furthermore, because we bring attendees from across the U.S., we also look for exhibiting organizations whose services and products can appeal to and be useful in a variety of contexts. !Logistical Information:
