CALL FOR PROPOSALS (NASCO / NAAG CONFERENCE OCTOBER 6-8, 2026)

Hosted by the National Association of Attorneys General and the National Association of State Charity Officials, our annual conference is the sole annual event at which charity regulators and nonprofit organizations and their attorneys, accountants, fundraisers, and advisors are welcome. Attendees meet, learn about, and discuss issues of interest across the sector. This year’s conference will be held in Portland, Oregon.

Call for Proposals

The conference will provide an opportunity to hear from regulators and other experts in the nonprofit sector on current issues. We are reaching out broadly to solicit ideas for workshops and presentations that might be useful. There is no budget for speakers’ registration and travel expenses.

On the NASCO website you will find more information as well as a short form that can be used to share your proposal for topics and even presenters/subject matter experts. You can also suggest whether the proposal is for the public or private days. 

Last year’s topics included charitable fundraising practices, religious organizations, ethical challenges when charities have complex organizational structures, and a survey of activities and enforcement actions from across the country.

The deadline for proposals is MARCH 2, 2026

You can find out more and submit a proposal here.

One of those key goals is to uphold the integrity of the charitable sector through ensuring transparency and accountability.
