2019 Conference Planning Committee Update


The location of the 2019 annual conference is Philadelphia!  It is an amazing place that offers AASECT a multitude of diverse experiences and we are hoping to integrate as much local talent and participation as possible.  We are already at work reviewing the feedback of 2018 conference attendees, putting together a conference committee, and choosing a theme that reflects our desire to further integrate the fields of education, counseling, and therapy.  The conference venue (selected years in advance by staff) is the same size as the Denver hotel, so chances are that we will sell out well in advance.  We promise to be in touch with the new theme, deadline for proposals, and other details as soon as they are decided.

President’s Letter – March 2018


As Spring begins, I am more and more looking forward to our 50th annual AASECT conference. Co-chairs Jayleen Galarza and Juan Camarena have put together a stellar program. Following the footsteps of recent co-chairs, they and their conference committee have looked for engaging thought leaders and have also valued diversity and inclusion throughout the plenary and workshops. I’ve checked the program multiple times already to start making my own selections about the workshops I most wish to attend.
