About

Seeking volunteers to support the Conference on Community Writing, a national event that brings together activists, artists, writers and scholars to theorize, enact, and write the stories of community change. The Conference will be held virtually from October 21st - 23rd.


By volunteering for two Zoom-room sessions of the conference, you will receive free entrance to the full conference platform. You must attend a training and/or watch a training video.


Monitoring a session involves

  • Start and end the session recording.

  • Supplement the closed-caption by writing in the chat  any names or words that are not captured accurately during the live session. (Presenters should share transcripts before the event, so you can familiarize yourself with names and terms.)

  • Communicate with the Conference host team (via GroupMe or a similar app) if any technical issues arise.

  • Alert the Conference host team (via GroupMe) if you detect any harassment, microaggressions or other harm during the presentation or question/answer period.


If you would like to volunteer, please see the Conference Schedule to find the most fitting time slot for your schedule. If you do not have a preference for which session you volunteer for, please register under the "Filler Role Sign Ups" slot for that respective time slot and you be placed where needed.

Volunteer training for the Conference on Community Writing will be held on Oct 15 from 3 to 4 pm ET and Oct 19 from 4-5pm ET.
