There will be both a journalism track and an activism track at the regional conference.

The application deadline to be considered for a housing/travel grant or to arrange a carpool is Sunday, January 18, 2009. Requests received after this date for travel, housing or carpool assistance will be considered, but the likelihood of acceptance will diminish significantly. Decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis. All applications must be received by Tuesday, February 3, 2009.

The journalism track will offer students and young people:
• Engaging speakers with media experience
• Hands-on workshops to enhance reporting and writing skills
• Publication critiques with professional journalists and Campus Progress staff
• Tour of CNN headquarters

The activism track will allow students and young people to:
• Hear from inspiring leaders

• Network with other organizers about key issues
• Discuss post-election organizing
• Engage in a community action
