VIRGINIA STATEWIDE NEIGHBORHOOD CONFERENCE, INC. ANNOUNCES SITE FOR THE 19TH ANNUAL 2018 VIRGINIA STATEWIDE NEIGHBORHOOD CONFERENCE


The Virginia Statewide Neighborhood Conference, Inc. (VSNC) Planning Committee is proud to announce that the City of Portsmouth, Virginia has been chosen as the site for the 19th annual Virginia Statewide Neighborhood Conference taking place at the Renaissance Portsmouth-Norfolk Hotel on September 14-15, 2018.

The theme of the conference is "Waves of Opportunity, Oceans of Success in Virginia’s Neighborhoods”. Attendees from neighborhoods and municipalities across our Commonwealth will come together to learn best practices for addressing neighborhood issues of the times, attend informative workshops, network with one another, and share experiences and information toward building stronger communities. In addition, the Youth Café will be offered to participating youth for them to learn how to become contributing members of their community, facilitate constructive changes and create opportunities for themselves and friends.

Finally, the 2018 conference will continue to solicit nominations from neighborhoods, individuals and youth from across Virginia to recognize the commitment, time, and energy of those who tirelessly volunteer to make their neighborhoods the places they are proud to call home at the annual VSNC Awards Luncheon. These awards have been presented since 2000 as a collective “thank you” to those nominated neighborhoods and individuals, and are the only statewide awards given to neighborhood organizations and individuals for their neighborhood self-help initiatives.

We hope you will plan to join us in Portsmouth, Virginia as we continue to work together making all neighborhoods across Virginia - neighborhoods of choice!
