About the Policy & Impact Summit
Join us for the 2nd annual Campus Compact President's Policy & Impact Summit to be held March 3rd and 4th in Washington D.C.
This summit will offer strategic opportunities for dialogue and engagement with key legislators (including appropriators and bi-partisan congressional leaders like the Problem Solvers caucus), agency leaders, and administration officials around the vital role of higher education in addressing community-centric issues and challenges through community partnerships, public impact research, anchor initiatives, and workforce development. We will use this time to build new relationships and showcase the diverse and impactful ways community and civic engagement make measurable differences every day for students and communities. As Campus Compact deepens its advocacy and visibility in D.C., this summit will be an important event to ensure your voice is represented as we solidify our priorities for 2025 and beyond.
To ensure each participant has a significant opportunity for exchange and collaboration, we plan to keep attendance limited at this event, with a projected attendance of 30-40 Presidents. There is no registration cost to participate in the Summit.
Please register no later than February 14, 2025
