ALL-CONVENTION EVENT
At CCCC 2018 in Kansas City, an all-convention event, entitled "Literacy, Language, and Labor for Social Justice: Outward and Inward Reflection," will be held on Thursday, March 15, from 1:45-3:00 pm. The session will have short presentations by local activists from Kansas City, MO, who can speak to our concerns and needs as a diverse body of literacy, rhetoric, and writing teachers and researchers. In addition to the panel, we will have opportunities to talk in small groups in response to a collection of statements from teacher-scholars in our field reflecting upon literacy, language, and labor for social justice.
ACTION HUB
Please check out the various tables and booths in the Action Hub that focus on local activists, fundraising for local and national activist organizations (e.g., Literacy KC, The Center for American Indian Community Health, and Black Lives Matter), and gathering knowledge and info about activism and other social justice projects.
WELCOMING COMPANIONS
The Welcoming Companions program is available to match attendees wanting company for travel around the convention and hotel sites with other attendee volunteers.
SJAC TASK FORCE RECOMMENDED PHONE APPS 
The CCCC SJAC Task Force recommends using either or both of these cell phone applications while your conferencing in KC:
ACLU Mobile Justice MO
This app allows you to quickly record any difficult or dangerous encounters with the police and have that recording transmitted immediately to the ACLU of Missouri; the app also provides an overview of your rights in any police encounters, as well as an option to file a follow-up report on any recordings. 
Glympse
This app allows you to share a map of your whereabouts in real time with any of your contacts (even if they do not have the app) so others can know and follow your current location. ​
