Virtual Platforms

Ensuring members can have voice and engage in the democratic process are two key components of a successful Annual Meeting. Ensuring SUN members have access to these same vital elements from the comfort and safety of their home is crucial during a global pandemic.

To participate in the 2022 virtual Annual Meeting, members will be engaging in the scheduled events utilizing the benefits of three (3) different platforms:
