A Strong Community

This conference is the largest national gathering of leaders in faith-based service – service program staff, campus ministers, former volunteers, and other advocates of our shared work and mission. During our four days together in Cleveland, we will come together to build community, develop new strategies, and work towards a stronger future for faith and service. 

Attendees will have the opportunity to strengthen their professional networks, develop new skills, learn about current trends and best practices, and gain inspiration to carry out their work.
