On Wednesday, July 8, 2009, 1,000 young people from across the country will come together in Washington DC for the fifth annual Campus Progress National Conference -- an amazing day of inspiring speeches, panels, performances, and interactive discussions on the issues that matter most to them.   Speakers at this conference in past years have included Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, John Lewis, Julian Bond, Majora Carter, Samantha Power, Ryan Gosling, and, of course, Fat Joe.

We are also proud to host a series of other events before and after the July 8th National Conference, including:

Tuesday, July 7
-Grassroots Training Day - FULL
-Journalism in Action Day - FULL

Wednesday, July 8
- National Conference - Still Space

Thursday, July 9
- Campus Progress and The Nation Youth Journalism Conference - FULL
- Youth Lobby Day - FULL

This form contains the application for all three days of events.

Space at the conference and related events is extremely limited, so we may not be able to accommodate all applicants.  Please apply as soon as possible.

Because we expect a very large number of applications, responding to you may take time. We intend to confirm applicants on a rolling basis until Friday, July 3, 2009.


Only attendees with confirmed registration will be permitted to enter the conference — no exceptions.
