Make plans now to attend the 2010 National Conference on Volunteering and Service, the world's largest gathering of volunteer leaders, June 28-30, 2010, in New York City as service takes center stage. Come to the city that never sleeps in the Empire State as we take service and volunteering to the next level!

The 2009 National Conference on Volunteering and Service, June 22 -24, 2009 in San Francisco, California, was a demonstration of civic. energy. generation. The 2009 conference far exceeded attendance goals and inspired all, thanks to the outstanding support of our sponsors and California Host Committee.

First Lady Michelle Obama kicked off the opening plenary session with a keynote address, confirming the Presidential Administration’s commitment to service and announcing the United We Serve initiative.

The time has finally arrived for the 2009 National Conference on Volunteering and Service, civic.energy.generation. I’ve been looking forward to the conference since last year’s hallmark gathering in Atlanta! I’m convinced that this conference will be our most eco-friendly, tech-savvy and inspirational one yet, with engaging expert speakers, live text message updates and guest appearances by several high-profile change makers and celebrities. San Francisco, a city known for innovation and novelty, will be an ideal backdrop for this exhilarating event.
