Expanding the Bench, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Informing Change, and Engage R+D are excited to be partnering together this year to host the annual ETB Gathering during the American Evaluation Association (AEA) Conference in Portland, Oregon on Wednesday, October 23, 2024 from 6:00 pm to 9:30 pm PT at the Oregon Convention Center.
Join us in a place of joy, celebration, and connection where racially and ethnically diverse evaluators come together with colleagues, partners, and funders. During this convening, we will celebrate 10 years of ETB and share past, present, and future visions while centering the people who’ve contributed to its journey of uplifting CREE. Festivities include culminating evaluators from the LEEAD Program, welcoming new evaluators in the ACE Evaluation Network, and more. We will be joined by Engage R+D and Informing Change, in partnership with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, with an interactive exhibit building excitement for equitable and culturally responsive evaluation approaches.
The event is open to all conference attendees. Please RSVP by October 11!
