Recordings from the Supportive Care Coalition’s Congress, Recovering Our Traditions III: A Journey of Transformation – Expanding the Horizons of Compassionate Care, will be available for purchase at the end of June. Coalition staff was extremely impressed with the DVD prototype and electronic downloads. The formatting of these presentations is a unique hybrid of the audio track and the PowerPoint, allowing viewers to fully focus on the materials while hearing each speaker's comments as recorded during the event. The cost is $15 for individual session downloads; $165 for a 20 session DVD, plus $16 shipping & handling, no downloading required for the DVD option. (There were a few sessions that were not recorded at presenter request.) Details about ordering both formats soon will be posted on our Web site. We appreciate the patience of conference-goers and others who have been eagerly awaiting these recordings.
