SUMMARY:Governmental Research Association and States for the Future Joint Annual Conference | July 19-22\, 2026 in Chicago\, Illinois
DESCRIPTION:States for the Future is excited to co-host the 2026 Annual Conference with the Governmental Research Association (GRA)\, taking place July 19–22\, 2026\, in Chicago\, Illinois. This collaboration brings together two networks representing states with nearly 80% of the US population for a unique opportunity to connect\, exchange ideas\, and strengthen our impact in states. \nOur nation’s semiquincentennial in 2026 invites reflection and action. It is an opportunity to examine the pressing issues facing our country and to consider the role organizations like the members of GRA and SFF play in shaping a stronger\, more effective future for the states we serve. \nFull details will be released in the coming months. In the meantime\, we welcome your ideas on topics and experiences that would be helpful to your work. And if you have a session proposal or work you would like to showcase\, we’d love to hear about that too. Let us know at info@statesforthefuture.org. \nWe encourage you\, your colleagues\, and your state partners to join us in Chicago for what promises to be a dynamic and impactful convening. Those in the SFF network qualify for the GRA Member Rate so be sure to register using the link below and secure your lodging early. A hotel reservation link within the conference room block is available on the registration page. \nWe look forward to convening\, collaborating\, and charting the future together. \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER
