This is the last call to register for the upcoming NCADV conference being held from July 31 to August 4, 2010 at the Hilton Anaheim. Full details on registration and accommodations are available on the NCADV site.

The 2010 conference theme is Changing Faces of the Movement. We chose this theme to stimulate thoughtful dialogue and discussion around the changes, challenges and successes the domestic violence movement has undergone since its beginnings over 30 years ago.

The conference includes plenary sessions on child custody and domestic violence, human trafficking, and the effect of domestic violence on teens and youth. Conference attendees can bring their children and have them participate in The Young Advocates For Peace Program which is open to children aged newborn to 18 years. (A small fee is charged for this program). Numerous workshops are also available to registrants.
