Dear John,
We have less than 40 days until we gather in Atlanta! Registration is open for the 2022 Prosperity Summit until September 5!
Every two years, we create a diverse, energetic, dynamic, and purposeful space for dedicated individuals working to advance economic equity. The Summit has long been a place for our partners in the field to share and learn best practices, discover new solutions, and galvanize around policies that promote financial security for all. This opportunity to convene and mobilize is critically important as we navigate the current economic crisis, as well as fight for economic equity and anti-racist policies affecting opportunity and equity for communities of color.
And this year, we chose Atlanta, GA as our gathering place.
Why Atlanta?
This year's Summit destination was deliberately chosen because of its civil rights legacy and leadership role in justice movements. It provides the perfect setting for this year's attendees to reflect on the past, convene around the present, and create action and impact for the future.
LEADERSHIP: From 1940 to 1970, the city became the epicenter for the Civil Rights Movement, as Black leaders fought for institutional, educational, and economic justice.
COMMUNITY: Atlanta is a model for civic infrastructure, with the largest network of historically Black colleges and universities in the U.S., prominent corporate leadership on our country’s most urgent issues, and strong grassroots commitment to civil and human rights.
LOCATION: The 2022 Prosperity Summit will be held at the renowned Hyatt Regency Atlanta, which Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called his “Hotel of Hope” after it was the only hotel willing to host the 1967 Southern Christian Leadership Conference.
