PA Progressive Summit

PA Progressive Summit Scholarship Program
The folks who make up today’s progressive movement share a set of fundamentally American values: equal opportunity and mutual responsibility, effective government, and hope for a better, more prosperous future for all Americans.
The fifth annual Pennsylvania Progressive Summit, to be held in Harrisburg on February 28-March 1, celebrates these shared values and builds them into our discussions of strategy, programs, messaging, and policy.
Join hundreds of social justice advocates, labor organizers and grassroots activists for training, networking — and the catalyst we all need to make real progress.
Scholarships Available
Thanks to generous contributors to the Keystone Progress Education Fund, we are able to offer scholarships for the 2012 Summit to 75 qualified applicants. Scholarships are intended for those who otherwise could not afford to attend, including:

This year, we’ll have close to 40 extraordinary interactive sessions in the skills and subjects that concern progressive Pennsylvanians. Our expert presenters will explore not just the what, where, and why of each issue, but how to create real change. The 2014 agenda will be online in mid-January.
Scholarships are limited, so please get your applications in ASAP.
