C&E Party Caucus Program
A National Gathering for Political Party Professionals
Dedicated programming for state party staff at the 2027 Reed Awards & Conference
Atlanta, GA · March 17-19, 2027
HOW THIS STARTED
Two panels turned into something bigger
At Campaigns & Elections’ most recent Digital Campaign Summit, we brought together digital directors from state parties across the country for two party-specific panel discussions focused on the challenges and opportunities facing state party organizations.
Those conversations turned into peer learning opportunities that staffers told us they almost never get with their counterparts in other states. The feedback from one state digital director: “It was great, but can you invite 20 more of us next time?”
It’s exactly why we created the C&E Party Caucus Program for the 2027 Reed Awards & Conference in Atlanta, Georgia on March 17-20.
By bringing together Democratic and Republican state party staff in a structured professional development environment, the Caucus Program creates opportunities to meet and learn from colleagues navigating many of the same organizational and campaign challenges in states across the country.
