Individuals of all ages, from all walks of life are turning to their computers, the Internet, their PDAs, anything they can get their hands on to stay connected!

The goal – leverage this connectivity to enable individuals to find opportunities for service and to spur social change. Please join us, on May 4, 2009 at George Washington University as leaders of all facets of the American Social Sector join together for this one-of-kind event. The common element: technology – the role it is already playing in social innovation and where it will take us! In addition to plenary sessions and keynote speakers, conference attendees will choose breakout sessions that best fit their background and further their own professional development. The conference will be held in Washington, DC and simulcast to Hampton Roads, Virginia – using the Old Dominion University TeleTech Network.
