Aspen Institute Project Play Summit

May 4, 2022

The Project Play Summit, the nation’s premier event for leaders building healthy children and communities through sports, is back IN PERSON for the first time in three years. We hope you will join us on May 4, at Audi Field in Washington, the home of MLS club D.C. United.

The global pandemic has presented immense challenges. Yet amid the disruption, the value of sports and physical activity has been made clear. We’ve also seen incredible fortitude, innovation and historic opportunity emerge that can build better models for youth in community, club and school sports.

Join the best room in sports as we convene leaders from across the Project Play network, share lessons learned from the pandemic, celebrate exemplars and successes, and chart next steps in building young lives through sports.

We are assembling an exciting lineup of sessions and speakers, including:

  • Don Garber, Commissioner, Major League Soccer
  • Ju’Riese Colón, CEO, U.S. Center for SafeSport
  • Karissa Niehoff, CEO, National Federation of State High School Associations

You’ll learn:

  • How your organization can access unprecedented new federal funding
  • How to revitalize your community’s in-town recreation league
  • How to reimagine high school sports — as Title IX did 50 years ago
  • How organizations are using the Children’s Bill of Rights in Sports to shape grantmaking, develop public messaging, and improve program delivery

And so much more, plus unrivaled networking and activation opportunities.

The full agenda will be released closer to the event but you can review highlights here.

Space is limited, so register today! If you have any questions, please contact ppsummit@aspeninstitute.org. We look forward to seeing you in May.
