CWA's Committee on Civil Rights and Equity has put together a special program for this year's civil rights and equity conference in New Orleans.
The three day meeting will include hands-on sessions on how to build local civil rights and equity committees, a status report on coalition building with national groups like the Congressional Black Caucus, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and the NAACP, and discussion around key civil rights issues for CWAers.
It also will focus on the hardships still facing victims of Hurricane Katrina and how CWAers have been working to help restore this community.
The conference will be held at the Loews New Orleans Hotel, beginning Friday evening, Sept. 24 through Sunday Sept. 26. For registration and hotel information, go here.
