NCFL is seeking student speakers for its 2020 Families Learning Conference, which will be held Oct. 19-21 in Dallas. Each year during the Conference, students share their learning stories with attendees during General Sessions (a time when all attendees are gathered together at once). These stories of determination, hard work, and achievement inspire us all.

In addition to the opportunity to tell their story in front of approximately 1,000 family literacy and family learning professionals, student speakers receive all travel, lodging, and registration for the Families Learning Conference courtesy of NCFL.

Applications may be completed by a student or someone nominating a student. To view questions before beginning a nomination, you can download a PDF version of the application.

All nominations are due by 11:59 p.m. PDT on Friday, May 1, 2020. For assistance or questions, please contact Carrie Wohlschlegel at cwohlschlegel@familieslearning.org.

Inspire practitioners across the country with your story or the story of a student you know. Apply to be a student speaker at the 2020 Families Learning Conference today!
