The CWCSEO Civics Conference (CivicsCon) on October 8th–10th is a 3-day event that will feature one full day in person (Thursday) and two half days virtual (Friday evening and Saturday morning). Our goal is to ensure access to the event for as many residents as possible.
At the heart of CivicsCon are three pillars our country depends on: Voice, Voting, and Volunteerism (Service). Through interactive panels, activities, and community discussion, CivicsCon will create space for conversations that strengthen communities, bridge divides, and build the civic muscle our state needs. Whether you are a longtime advocate, student or someone just beginning to find your place in civic life, there is a place for you here.
Stay tuned this week for the agenda and speaker announcements.
