Taking place in person in Jacksonville, Florida, the 2022 Annual Conference will feature five days of content including more than 130 panels across seven tracks, Chapter and Section events, symposia, workshops and more. We're excited to see everyone in person this spring!

We are looking forward to welcoming you to our 2022 Annual Conference! The ASPA team has been working hard with the staff of the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront, a lovely and spacious venue that provides sweeping views of St. Johns River and easy access to the heart of downtown. Its size and plentiful outdoor decks and balconies will accommodate a wonderful mix of outdoor and indoor programming.

Providing for the safety of those around us is a daily personal responsibility. Our attendees' is always our primary concern. All conference participants must provide proof of vaccination prior to the conference and be masked while participating in all indoor activities. These measures will be enforced, as will others designed to ensure your safety while we are together in Jacksonville.

This year’s theme—"Democracy under Threat: The Future of Equality in a Post-COVID World—is a sobering one, reflecting the realities of our times...and the uncertainties that lie ahead. Join us as we explore these critical issues and also focus upon and highlight a number of strategic initiatives that ASPA will be launching to solidify our presence on issues of democracy, equity and inclusion, and national public service.
