Helpful Tips & Things to Keep in Mind

Conference Audience: Please keep in mind that Inspire Neighborhood's Conference was primarily created to serve the City of Fort Wayne's grassroots and neighborhood association leaders. In your application, it will be important to let us know how your presentation will benefit and help equip one or both of those audiences.

Details about focus areas: To be considered, presentations and workshops must be aligned with one of our four focus areas. If you have not already done so, please take some time to review the PDF version of our application (which provides additional information about each of our four topic areas as well as examples of past presentation topics that fit each focus area).

Questions & Brainstorming: If you have any idea for a conference presentation but aren't quite sure that it will "fit" - our team is happy to help! Please reach out to us by calling or emailing Réna Bradley at 260-427-2284 or rena.bradley@cityoffofortwayne.org.

Alignment - Impact for Conference Attendees* This field is required.We want meaningful engagement of attendees to be a hallmark of neighborhood conference content. Opportunities to interact can include more serious activities like participating in object-based lessons or drafting action plans to take back to one’s neighborhood as well as more light-hearted activities like talking to and laughing with one another.
