Conference Details
SUMMARY
NPCA’s annual conference for the Peace Corps community — Peace Corps Connect 2023 — will be held virtually on Friday, September 8 and Saturday, September 9.
This year’s theme “Answer the Call: Serve, Serve, Serve” will explore the triumphs and challenges of service post-pandemic — both on a national and global scale — as the need for more Americans to serve couldn’t be more crucial.
