 our network of practitioners that makes the ODA community so valuable. Join us in March as we tap into that collective wisdom. We all have needs, and sometimes the clues or even the solutions are right around us. ‘Reciprocity Rings’ leverage the idea that within a group, someone can help you take the next step, and you might just have what someone else needs too! Think of a professional need you haven't yet resolved and bring it to the group. Even if you don't have a specific need, come along to pay it forward to your ODA peers.
