Inform USA's mission is to serve those in the nonprofit and government sectors that provide information and referral services, often referred to as community navigation. Inform USA is the driving force behind the delivery of quality resource referral, navigation, and connection services and is the sole source for standards, program accreditation, and practitioner certification for the sector.
Inform USA has various opportunities for members throughout each year.

The Request for Session Proposals for the upcoming Annual Conference is now open and ready to accept your session ideas!
The primary audience is Community Navigation professionals at all levels of any organization that provides Community Navigation in the US or Canada.
This is an excellent opportunity for those looking to start teaching or speaking, or to share valuable experiences and lessons with peers. Selected speakers will be promoted leading up to the conference and honored for their expertise and willingness to share wisdom and experience with the Inform USA community.
We recognize that all submissions are (in a sense) working drafts, and presenters will have time to tweak or enhance the initial RFP before the final conference copy is presented. We are also open to submissions that envision a panel that may not yet be fully populated. We welcome submissions from in-the-trenches practitioners, supervisors/managers, trainers, IT staff, military members, consultants, academics, authors, and corporate vendors.
