Advanced Registration Roster (as of March 15)

This year’s 2013 Grassroots Annual Leadership and Legislative Conference is designed to help AIA’s leaders reach their fullest potential in their firms, components, and communities.  With a wide range of leadership opportunities being offered, the event will focus on a leadership curriculum that allows leaders to acquire and enhance their leadership skills and focus on specific hands-on practice exercises.  Continuing the Grassroots tradition, there will be many occasions for attendees to provide input on AIA initiatives and share information and ideas with AIA component staff and their counterparts from around the country.  The agenda will also include a dynamic legislative conference that will address how you can effectively influence the political arena in your community.  Two vibrant keynote speakers will provide their insights on the current and future state of the profession and organizations and our roles as leaders.

Plan to join your AIA colleagues for three and one-half days that will enlighten, inform, and inspire you.

• Network with peers and meet AIA national leaders and staff

• Advocate for the AIA’s legislative agenda on Capitol Hill

• Hear and articulate ideas at the Member Congress

• Sharpen leadership skills with workshops and best practices sessions designed specifically to help you become more effective chapter and civic leaders.

Don’t miss this opportunity to participate in one of the best experiences for learning training, engaging, sharing and networking.  Please review the schedule to determine your arrival and departure dates and times.
