Covid-19 and the Accessing Higher Ground Conference

Since no one knows what the status of the pandemic and the ability of presenters to travel and speak at the conference in the fall will be, individuals will not be penalized for submitting a proposal and later declining to present at the conference onsite. We will be asking on the RFP form if you would be willing to present remotely if the need arises to switch from an onsite to virtual event. The deadline for second-round submissions is June 17.

Call for Second-Round Proposals Is Now Open

The second round due date is June 17. Speakers will be notified by July 10 confirming acceptance or decline of their proposal(s).
