Annual Brethren Homes Forum offers education about industry trends.

Planners expect 40 to 50 attendees at this year's Forum, an annual conference for staff of Brethren-affiliated retirement homes, which will be held March 4-6 at the Brethren Retirement Community of Greenville, Ohio. The event is sponsored by the Fellowship of Brethren Homes, a ministry of the Association of Brethren Caregivers (ABC), and is a time for networking and education about industry trends affecting all of the Brethren homes.

One of the primary presenters during the forum will be Jerry Haselmayer, a consultant on leadership development from Cincinnati, who will utilize "Good to Great," a management book written by Jim Collins. Allan Payne and Jackie Messersmith, consultants from Lancaster Pollard, also will make presentations. Church of the Brethren presenters will be Mark Flory-Steury, district executive for Southern Ohio, and ABC staff Ralph McFadden and Kathy Reid.
Special events during the forum will be a tour of the facility, and an evening dinner that features awards and recognitions.
