International Attendees

This opportunity is closed for the 2022 National Conference.

Each year, leaders from other parts of the world, including countries in Africa, Asia, Europe, and Latin America, attend CCDA’s National Conference. The growing international interest led to the development of CCDA’s Global Connections Community (GCC).

GCC aspires to build transnational relationships, network with existing CCD work globally, learn from CCD practices in other contexts, respond to international interest, and identify a strategic pathway for CCDA’s growing global involvement.

We encourage you to connect with a network that promotes church-based Christian Community Development in your country or region. We can direct you to these international groups:

  • Micah Network – a global association of hundreds of organizations in 80+ countries pursuing holistic, integral mission – including CCD
  • La Red Del Camino – a movement focused on connecting churches & practitioners involved in integral mission in Latin America
  • InnerCHANGE – Christian order among the poor worldwide
  • Servant Partners – a movement centered on Jesus Christ, planted in urban poor communities around the world

If you are interested in attending the 2022 CCDA National Conference, please note the following:

If you have a valid US Visa or Passport:

  • International practitioners who have valid US visas and passports are invited to participate. Please complete the International Attendee form so we can capture your contact information. Please contact [email protected] with any questions.

CCDA cannot provide any financial assistance for travel or conference expenses; all international attendees are responsible for making their own travel and lodging arrangements. However, we will waive your conference registration fee. Once you have confirmed your attendance, CCDA will process your registration.

If you do not have a valid US Visa:

If you are an international practitioner with a connection to a CCDA leader, you may request a letter of invitation for a US visa application by fulfilling the following requirements:

  1. Complete the International Invitation Request form.
  2. Demonstrate a connection to a CCDA leader. CCDA requires a letter of reference completed by said leader (please send as PDF to [email protected]). We recommend this be completed within a week of submitting the International Invitation Request form.
  3. Requests will be reviewed by the Global Connections Committee monthly. If approved, invitations will be generated at the beginning of each month (one addressed to the US Consulate, and one addressed to you). CCDA will email all invitations.
  4. The deadline to submit the International Attendee form and letter of reference: July 31, 2022.

We request to be informed if and when your visa is approved. Please contact Sunny Jonas at [email protected] if you have obtained a visa and plan to attend the conference. CCDA cannot provide any financial assistance for travel or conference expenses; all international attendees are responsible for making their own travel and lodging arrangements. However, we will waive your conference registration fee. Once you have confirmed your attendance, CCDA will process your registration.

Membership

What is membership? For the past 25 years, CCDA and over 1,000 associated organizations have been pursuing a common vision to see wholistically restored communities with Christians fully engaged in the process of transformation. CCDA is strategically positioned to lead efforts across our country to address poverty and issues of injustice. We do this by supporting the work of local Practitioners (individuals, churches and organizations located in under-resourced neighborhoods and directly practicing the 8 Key Components of CCD) and Partners (individuals, churches and organizations providing needed support for Practitioners) coming together around a common vision
