Mark your calendars! The 2026 Alumni Leadership Conference (ALC) will take place on October 21 and 22 in Harvard Square, with specific locations to be announced. ALC brings together Club and SIG leaders from across the globe to share best practices, success stories, and challenges. It’s a fantastic opportunity to create connections with fellow volunteers and make new friends! Registration will launch this summer.
Help us prepare for ALC by completing the Annual Report survey and signing the HAA Annual Operating Agreement. Your responses help inform strategic planning and collaborations, including discussion topics for ALC. All organizations (with the exception of Undergraduate-based SIGs and Contacts) are required to complete the Annual Report by Monday, June 22, to attend ALC.
