The NOA Steering Committee reflects our diversity. Click here to find out who's on the steering committee. The NOA National Gathering has become a can't-miss event in the organizer community, and for good reasons.
Organizers attend many meetings and conferences - perhaps too many.
But until the Gathering no one sought to bring together organizers of every race, gender, class, generation, region, sexual orientation and organizing practice for the purpose of creating ties that can build a movement. But even more important than physical place has been cultural space. Organizers recognize the power and the joy of meeting with hundreds of peers for three to five days of intense discussion, cultural insight, celebration and renewed community. As a result, each succeeding Gathering grows bigger and more challenging. To read what some of the attendees of Gathering IV had to say about the event click here.
