Region 10, the host of the 11th National Empowerment Conference (NEC), busily planned the biannual event. They assembled a conference planning committee and recruited individuals from across the country with a shared interest in advancing the Filipino American community. The conference, which was held on August 7-10, 2014 in San Diego, California, focused on achieving the following outcomes:
- Recognize strides already made by the youth and address them as key peer partners in community organizing
- Provide useful and practical programming for attendees through “track” workshops in organizational advancement, program highlights, professional development, and civic engagement education
- Create a sustainable momentum in establishing a “pipeline” of leadership from youth, to professional, to community advocate through personal and skill development
The committee’s duties and responsibilities leading up to the event were outlined in the Conference Staff Packet.
More information about the conference is available on the NaFFAA 11th National Empowerment Conference site.
