The conference will be held November 12-16 in San Diego, California and will feature over 120 workshops and small group networking sessions designed to enhance the confidence and skills of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered activists and organizers who work at the local and state level. The four plenaries will be carried live and selected workshops will be available on demand during the conference.
