Brigade Congress 2022

What is Brigade Congress?

Brigade Congress is the primary convening centered around the Code for America Network–Brigade volunteers and leaders, government and community partners, and civic tech professionals. Together, we'll learn the skills we need to level-up our civic hacking communities.

We have planned training sessions, collective action activities, speakers, unconference sessions, lightning talks, and more, attendees will share their vision of what’s next for our movement.

Come ready to share your stories on what has worked, what hasn't, and how we can apply to those lessons to future wins. We’ll tackle how to prevent burnout, how to solve difficult problems, and how to overcome the problems you’re facing on the ground. But beyond that, we’ll talk about our shared values and share how Brigades across the country are working for change.

Agenda

The agenda is still be worked out but we will update the website once it is complete.
