Hi APALCers, 

As many of you know, the Advancing Justice Conference is one of the projects that brings together the four affiliates that make up Asian American Center for Advancing Justice.  This year, the conference will be held in San Francisco from October 27-28.  This is an amazing opportunity for inspiration, idea building, skills development and networking.

Please also note that you can sign up directly to receive Advancing Justice Conference emails (see second box in e-blast).  Please encourage your networks to sign up for up-to-date information.  

If you have any questions about the conference, please ask Clayton.  

Thanks!

Bernice
