SENIOR CORPS CONFERENCE

Senior Corps Project Directors and Sponsors

Welcome to the main landing page for the 2008 Senior Corps Conference, which for the first time ever is being held in conjunction with the National Conference on Volunteering and Service. The combined conference promises to be one of the most productive and valuable ever, providing Senior Corps project directors and sponsors with an unparalleled   opportunity to discuss policies related to Senior Corps, to share best practices, to explore new technologies, to connect with others, and to learn about the latest in volunteer management. Highlights include pre-Conference workshops and activities, a “Senior Corps Day” during the Conference, a Town Hall meeting, a Senior Corps awards luncheon, individual program meetings, and tabletop discussions.

Conference and hotel registration must be done online via this site using the orange and blue buttons above. You will select your conference agenda when you register for the conference. If you register before April 30, the total fee for Senior Corps attendees is $350, which includes $300 for the National Conference and $50 for activities specifically geared to Senior Corps. After April 30, the registration fee goes up to $450.
