Our region reps play an important role in connecting with our members in their respective regions. There work has included regions meet-ups, virtual discussion spaces, conference networking and socials, regional educational sessions and more!

Many of our Region Reps have also gone on to serve as part of the Consortium Executive Board, ACPA CSGI Directorate Board, and beyond!

Conventions are always fun for us as we also get to do some team bonding! The Board members mostly meet virtually as a majority of us work at different institutions in different states. For some of us, it was the first time meeting in-person! Moments like these help us find joy and allow us to connect at a deeper level, making us an even more cohesive team!

Thank you to all who attended our pre-convention “Supporting Q***r & Trans Communities in this Political Moment”. We had such meaningful conversations, strategized possibilities, shared community space, and celebrated our achievements.

We hope to still connect with those still at ACPA! And don’t forget about Cabaret!
