13th Biennial Conference of the Society for Community Research and Action

Sponsor/Exhibitor Opportunities

You are invited to participate as a sponsor, exhibitor, and/or advertiser, for the 13th Biennial Conference of the Society for Community Research and Action to be held June 16-19, 2011 in Chicago, Illinois. The theme of this international conference is: New Pathways Toward Community Change and Transformation. One aspiration for community psychology has been, and will continue to be, around innovation; particularly toward transformative thinking, strategy, and action. We hope this conference builds upon our traditions while emphasizing new creations, continuing attempts to reflect on and reconsider our values, and ensuring the spirit of innovation never ends. Our community psychology values provide a guide for all areas of our lives.The structure of our organizations and approaches should "pre-configure" social change. In other words, the way we interact, set policies, and live by our values-whether at home, in our offices, organizations, or communities-should model those values and the changes we wish to see in the world. Our daily practices and structures should pre-configure that vision.

The conference will consist of three days of keynote presentations, symposia, and roundtable forums designed to promote interchange, dialogue, and coalition building among community psychology academicians and practitioners. This conference will move the field of Community Psychology forward, setting the agenda for our field in the future. You are invited to partner with us, along with other community psychology organizations in sponsoring, exhibiting, or advertising at this conference.

Active promotion of the 13th Biennial Conference of the Society for Community Research and Action will take place and traffic will be continuously driven to the conference website, www.scra27.org/biennial/2011_chicago, where sponsors, exhibitors, and advertisers will receive repeated exposure via listings on the website. Conference attendance is expected to be at 750.

The following are the primary sponsoring organizations for the overall event: Adler School of Professional Psychology, National-Louis University, and Roosevelt University. The leaders of these organizations invite you to join us as an exhibitor and maximize your exposure to key audiences by participating as an exhibitor at the 13th Biennial Conference of the Society for Community Research and Action.
