The USSF will take place June 22-26, 2010 at Cobo Hall and Hart Plaza in downtown Detroit. Other workshops and community art and culture programs will take place across the city. The USSF will convene social movements from across the United States and globally. Organizers are reaching out to young people, people of color, unionists, laid off and unorganized workers, welfare recipients, veterans, persons with disabilities, indigenous people, freedom fighters, collectives, and many others.

The conference is the largest gathering of youth and practitioners involved in service-learning, drawing approximately 2,500 attendees from across the United States and many other countries each year. Through three days of general sessions, thought leader series, service-learning projects, and networking, the conference engages participants in local, national, and global issues that service-learning addresses. Come explore more than 100 exhibits, and nearly 150 hands-on workshops and service-learning projects.

In our eighth annual Northeast Media Literacy Conference, a major focus will be on media literacy as the critical 21st century skill and the growing need to help young people to develop critical thinking skills in understanding and interpreting the ubiquitous media world and its impact upon the changing youth culture – in terms of its use of time, thinking, priorities, decisions, actions, and values – and the implications for possible changes in our media literacy efforts in our schools and youth-oriented organizations.
