Join us
in Nashville, Tenn., for The 20th Annual National
Service-Learning Conference at the Nashville Convention Center, March 18-21,
2009! The conference is the
largest gathering of youths and practitioners involved in the service-learning
movement, drawing approximately 2,700
attendees from across the United States and at least
20 other counties each
year. Through three days of general
sessions, featured forums, and service-learning projects,
the conference engages participants in local, national, and global issues that service-learning addresses. It provides networking opportunities
with service-learning leaders

workshops, receptions, and informal meetings. This year, the conference celebrates service-learning’s role in the regeneration of hope, and issues a call for action in a time when the world seems smaller with every technological advance.
