It's almost time for the call for proposals...

The call for submissions for CUFA 2019 will be released VERY soon. It continues in the tradition of the last several CUFA conferences by asking participants how we might move the field forward and engage with classrooms, communities, and activists in innovative ways that reiterate the NCSS 2019 theme of Informed Action. This year's call includes a few big changes from past conferences, so read it carefully and email cufa2019conference@gmail.com if you have any questions.

All hands on deck: Please sign up to review!

The submission window for CUFA 2019 proposals is officially closed! We had a record 257 proposals submitted across a range of session formats and topics. Narrowing those down will be a daunting task that requires all hands on deck! Please sign up to be a reviewer at the bottom of  https://cufa2019.socialstudies.org . A diverse, responsible reviewer pool is the key to our conference! For those of you who are new to reviewing and/or CUFA, we are developing a reviewer guide to support you. If you have any questions, please contact the 2019 Program Chair, Dr. Noreen Naseem Rodríguez, at cufa19conference@gmail.com.
