  • Annual Membership Meeting - Call for Content Proposal (due: 3/15) & Open Forum (tomorrow: 3/9)

    Annual Membership Meeting Content: Request for Proposals - due March 15
    Our network's strength comes from you, our members. As such we want your help to comprise the program for the Annual Membership Meeting! As members, you drive the program content, and we invite you to propose a complete concept for an in-depth session that highlights an issue of importance, policy innovation, or racial equity practice you would like to share with the network.

    This year, because of the virtual platform on which we will host the conference, we are limiting our breakouts to 12 in-depth sessions. Each session will be 90 minutes; can have up to three presenters; and may need to accommodate up to several hundred attendees. Please note, GARE may choose to provide a moderator for each session. We encourage jurisdictions to think creatively about how to present your content -- by working with other jurisdictions to submit a proposal together; by inviting community members to present alongside you; or showcasing your work in another innovative way.
    To learn more about the breakout sub-themes and to offer a content proposal for selection, click here. The deadline for submissions is March 15th.

    If you have any questions, please reach out to our Network Manager, Anna Lemler at alemler@raceforward.org.
