The 19th National Conference on Child Abuse and Neglect is the nation’s premier training and technical assistance event for the child maltreatment field.  Check back frequently for updates on the exciting educational and networking opportunities that are part of this biannual event. The event will be on April 30th to May 2nd. It is in Jazz Fest time, so there will be some issues finding hotels if you are coming from outside New Orleans or commuting distance. It is being held at the Hyatt Regency in New Orleans on the corner of Loyola and Poydras.

Conference Cost

There is no registration fee to attend the Conference. 

Volunteering

The Louisiana Host Team is a collaborative group of volunteers from many sectors who are working to develop the volunteer teams needed for a major conference. We are seeking more volunteers to help us - primarily with the moderating roles. Do you want to hear national speakers on key issues impacting children and families? If you do, we need you! You can sign up at www.latwc.com. There are over 1400 registrations for the conference already – we need our Louisiana folks to help us with manpower.
