The 2023 convention marks 100 years as an organization.

As we continue to address critical issues within our field and in our larger societies, there is value in revisiting and reflecting on:

- previous contributions that have shaped our current practices and perspectives

- fundamental theories and practices that contribute to today's research, policies, and practices

- whether our work includes, serves, and benefits from the diversity of learners and context
