The health and safety of NENA event attendees is a top priority, and, as such, we have moved #NENAGTW to March. The new dates are March 15-18. Current registrants received an email on Friday, January 21 to confirm their attendance on the new dates. However, hotel reservations for the original February dates will be cancelled automatically. Attendees will need to rebook housing for the event here

9-1-1 Goes to Washington (#NENAGTW) is an interactive forum where you learn about and discuss national 9-1-1 issues and advance those issues on Capitol Hill. This dynamic, hands-on program provides you with increased knowledge of 9-1-1 and homeland security legislative and regulatory topics, as well as critical information on the federal-government process and how to work with federal policy makers. It is vital, now more than ever, that 9-1-1 professionals become active participants in the governmental process to advance the goals of our profession and industry. 

Top Five Reasons to Attend:

  1. Be a leader, not a spectator! Attending #NENAGTW is a great way to advocate for the national 9-1-1 agenda and let Congress hear the "Voice of 9-1-1."
  2. Hear from nationally elected members of Congress, the leadership of the Congressional NextGen 9-1-1 Caucus, and federal policy leaders from the FCC, the National 911 Program Office, and other agencies. 
  3. Participate in informative panel sessions on the nation's pressing 9-1-1 regulatory and legislative issues and other federal government activities impacting emergency communications.
  4. Learn and share information on emerging 9-1-1 issues with national policy leaders and 9-1-1 professionals from across the country.
  5. Meet with 9-1-1 leaders to advance a national 9-1-1 agenda and promote pressing local and state issues from your area.
