Jewish Voice for Peace
2017 National Member Meeting

Please Note: this year, the Jews of Color, Sephardi, and/or Mizrahi (JOCSM) Caucus is organizing an all-day gathering for JOCSM-identified members on March 31st. Learn more about the special gathering here.
Rates
The total cost per person at the National Member Meeting is about $550, which covers meeting rooms, breakfast and lunch on Saturday and Sunday, snacks, coffee, materials, speaker fees, hotel staff support, the audio/visual tech and the like.
However, we don’t want money to be a barrier for anyone who wants to attend the NMM, so we are committed to subsidizing attendees as much as we can, based on need. We hope that if you are able to pay the unsubsidized or sponsorship rates, you do so to help provide support to those who need it. Use the guide below to determine how much you should pay. Note: we are unable to offer refunds on ticket purchases.
The Member Leader and Student rates require codes from a JVP staff person. If you qualify for these rates but never received a code, please reach out to your local organizer, or to JVP Membership Coordinator Samantha Brotman at samantha@jvp.org.
