If Not You, Who? If Not Now, When?

posted on: Apr 27, 2012

The ADC National Convention is less than 2 months away, but it’s not too late to take advantage of early bird pricing! We have extended the deadline, and these discounted rates will now be available through Thursday, May 31 online.

Wondering why it matters that you attend? Wondering why you should take time out of your busy schedule to come to DC in June? It’s plain and simple – ADC can’t further its mission without you.

This has been a year of anti-Arab political rhetoric, unwarranted surveillance directed at Arab Americans, and negative stereotyping in the media, in schools, and in popular literature. With 2012 being an election year, we must take charge of our political agenda and move forward as a community. The next seven months are going to decide the next four years.

That’s why YOU should participate.

Besides, if not you, who? And if not now, when?

There is no better time to get involved and truly make a difference than at the ADC National Convention.

Registration includes an all-access-pass to 20 sessions (including panels, caucuses, workshops, events, entertainment, the gala) and 5 three-course meals. Read about all the benefits and the complete program lineup on our convention website.

Arab American history is American history. We are responsible for the change we want to see in this country. This is your chance to take charge.

The early bird deadline will not be further extended. We kept expenses down to make the convention affordable for everyone. After May 31 prices go up to $250 for students, $300 for members, and $400 for non-members.

Save up to $100 when you purchase your package before May 31. Go to convention.adc.org and buy your package today.
