What's in it for You?

ACDN is committed to the growth and success of its member agencies, and in 2023 we’re taking our efforts up a notch or two. This year, you’ll experience more than transformational training sessions and gathering relevant resources. We have curated a line-up of hands-on workshopping sessions that’ll have you leaving accomplished and finally ahead of some of the biggest tasks you take on throughout the year.

We understand the mission-driven work you do day in and out can be overwhelming and seemingly never-ending. That's why we invite you to come alongside your ACDN community where you’ll be seen, heard, and gain the support you need. Here’s what attending Conference this year will get you:

• COMMUNITY - 3 days surrounded by people who just ‘get it’ when it comes to what you do and why = $$$$ PRICELESS

• COLLECTIVE WISDOM - Brag & Steal is back, and better than ever! See what’s working well for others + leave with the tools/resources so you can do it, too!

• CLARITY - Nothings breeds confidence in taking action more than getting clear, and between our trainings and hands-on workshopping sessions, you’ll get to the strategic planning you’ve been meaning to 

• CONNECTION - Work hard, play hard, right?! We'll have some fun, too!

• COLLABORATION - Curated workshopping sessions designed to move the needle on the top operational needs of your organization: marketing, fundraising, grant writing, volunteer management, mindfulness/self-care, tech solutions

• COLLATERAL - Why reinvent the wheel when your community already has what you need? Leave with the forms, tools, and resources you need, so you can spend more time on your WHY
