Exciting News! Registration for NAA27 is Now Open!
This year is especially meaningful as we celebrate 40 years of the National AfterSchool Association — four decades of advancing the afterschool profession, strengthening programs, and supporting the leaders who make this work possible every day.
Our anniversary theme, Built to Last. Ready to Rise., honors the foundation we’ve built together while looking toward the future of afterschool. It’s a celebration of the resilience, innovation, and commitment that have defined our profession and an invitation to explore what’s next.
At NAA27, you’ll join colleagues from across the country for four days of learning, connection, and inspiration. Whether you’re attending your first Convention or returning as a longtime member of the NAA community, you’ll find opportunities to exchange ideas, discover practical strategies, and build relationships that strengthen your work long after Convention ends.
From engaging workshops and leadership intensives to inspiring Story Showcases, Sparks, and meaningful networking events, NAA27 is designed to help you grow as a leader while celebrating the incredible impact of the afterschool profession.
