Annual Neighborhood Conference

The annual Neighborhood Conference is our biggest event of the year, boasting 350+ attendees and growing every year!

The goal of the annual Neighborhood Conference is to provide the entire community, including the surrounding areas of Monrovia, an opportunity to gain education, information, training, and resources, and to build relationships with individuals and groups from all walks of life. In return, we want everyone in attendance to take what they have learned and share it within their community, their workplace, their neighborhoods, or anywhere it might be needed.

If you are the type of person who loves to gain knowledge about interesting topics, learn about current trends in the community, meet new people, and want to gain the motivation to get involved in your community; then mark your calendars to attend.
