WHAT IS WE WIN TOGETHER WEEK 2024?

Changemakers from the grassroots to the grasstops in every sector–communities, public health and health care, farming, education, economy/finance, policy, etc. all of whom are working to be better ancestors by transforming from within, transforming together and transforming systems of injustice.

All of you! While we will have some amazing spotlight or catalyst speakers, including Calvin Terrell, Shemekka Ebony-Coleman, James Clark, Najaah Daniels , Abeni Bloodworth, Richard Joyner - the real power of WE WIN Together Week is that it is about our conversations and sharing with one another!

We will be collaborating on becoming Better Ancestors through the following tracks: Well-Being Economy, Health Equity & Structural Racism, Data for Power, and Youth Technology.

A block of rooms has been reserved at the Angad Arts Hotel with a group rate of $145+tax/night including breakfast and parking. There are other hotels nearby that you can also stay at if you choose.

Please note on the registration form any supports (dietary and/or other requests) that would make your participation easier and WE will do our best to accommodate them or work with you to ensure the event is accessible.

The hotel is a short walk (10 minutes) to St Louis University. There is also a direct public bus outside the hotel to get Busch Student Center at SLU. It is not anticipated that a car is necessary. If you are driving to the event, complimentary parking will be available at the hotel.

There are two optional early evening gatherings planned. If you have any artistic, musical, spoken word, or comedic talents, we encourage you to bring those to a talent showcase. We will reserve tables at some of the many nearby restaurants to gather in the evening.

WE is committed to making this event accessible to as many people as possible and there may be limited funding support available. Please note on the registration form and a WE team member will reach out. If you're able, we invite you to contribute to help someone else attend.

We encourage everyone to contribute to supporting this community in a way that works for them. Any amount you can offer is greatly appreciated. If everyone in the movement gave $25-$100, regardless of their ability to attend themselves, we would have enough to cover WIN Week for everyone.

Yes, there will be multiple community site visits to choose from. Each of the site visits will discuss one of the key tracks of the gathering.

There would be an area available for bag storage in each site. escription
