White House Conference on Faith-Based and Community Initiatives

Wednesday, April 12, 2006
8:00am - 5:00pm

Hyatt Jacksonville
225 East Coast Line Drive
Jacksonville, FL 32202

On Wednesday, April 12, the White House and the Departments of Justice, Commerce, Agriculture, Labor, Veterans Affairs, Health & Human Services, Housing & Urban Development, and Education, the Agency for International Development and the Small Business Administration will host a conference in Jacksonville to help faith-based and other community organizations learn more about President Bush's Faith-Based and Community Initiative. The Federal government is working to make sure that faith-based and community groups can compete on an equal footing for Federal dollars, receive greater private support, and face fewer bureaucratic barriers.

The conference is free, but pre-registration is required. Registration is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Visit www.fbci.gov to register online. We strongly encourage you to register online. If you are unable to register online, print the registration form attached to this email. Complete the form and fax it to 703-416-1935.

If you must cancel your registration, please send an email to fbci@dtihq.com or a fax to the number listed above so we may accommodate as many people as possible.

The conference is part of a series of regional conferences that are being held around the country. These conferences will provide participants with information about Federal programs that are suited to their needs, the Federal funding process, and the legal requirements that may apply to recipients of Federal funds. They will also offer practical information on the grant-writing process and facilitate opportunities to network with government officials.

For more information, please call 202-456-6718, send an email to fbci@dtihq.com, or visit www.fbci.gov.

We very much hope you will be able to join us in Jacksonville.
