CSCA 2026 Convention - Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Caucus Updates
Dear Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Caucus members,
With less than 8 weeks until we gather in Minneapolis for the CSCA conference, I want to highlight some of this year's sessions and encourage you to register if you haven't already, as early bird rates end March 9.
We invite you to join us for an off-site social at Queermunity, where members of OutFront Minnesota will also network with us about queer advocacy and organizing. The social is scheduled for Saturday, April 18, at 5 pm. Queermunity, at 3036 Hennepin Avenue, is less than a 10-minute Metro ride on the E Line (plus a collective 12-minute walk to/from the stations).
Please complete this brief form to RSVP to the event and to indicate your travel preferences or plans.
But first, let's kick off the conference with our second annual book club on Thursday, April 16, at 11 am in Greenway D. We're partnering with ERIC and the Women's Caucuses to take a deep dive into Audre Lorde's Sister Outsider. You do not need to have read the book to participate in this conversation about centering intersectional perspectives and amplifying marginalized voices in our subdisciplines.
Please learn more about ways to get involved with SOGI at our Business Meeting and Awards Ceremony, scheduled for Friday, April 17 at 9:30 am in Greenway F, followed by our Top Papers panel in the same location at 11 am.
Check the conference program for complete details and other SOGI panel information. See you in April!
Sincerely,
2026 SOGI Chair and Program Planner
