Conference Schedule & Workshops
​
The USAP National Conference will feature a mix of workshops and general sessions designed to meet the needs of conference attendees. One of the benefits of this conference is that it is being specifically designed U.S. Pride organizations. The workshops will center on issues that are common for us in the U.S., which may be different from other parts of the world. By meeting together, we can discuss these topics and trends that are unique to the U.S.

The USAP Conference Scholarship allows USAP to support individual Pride organizers who may not otherwise be able to attend and participate at the national conference. The scholarship is available to Pride organizers with an expressed need for financial assistance, with a focus on new or small organizations. Scholarships are not intended to cover the full cost of a recipient’s participation in the conference, but rather supply meaningful financial assistance based on need. Scholarship funds are generously provided by a variety of USAP member organizations.
