NAAFA Returns to our Nation’s Capital

FOSTER CITY, Calif. - May 9, 2014 - PRLog -- NAAFA will be returning this year to the Washington, DC area for our annual meeting.  Since many of our members have expressed that tight budgets are an issue, we are scaling back to a more casual two day conference beginning the evening of Friday, August 8 through Sunday, August 10, 2014.

NAAFA is pleased to announce that we have made arrangements for accommodations at the beautiful Crowne Plaza Dulles Airport Hotel, 2200 Centreville Road, Herndon, VA 20170.  Rates will be an amazing $84.00 per night single and $94.00 per night double occupancy.

Our focus at this conference will be on networking and NAAFA’s plans for the future.  Workshops will include: enjoyable movement classes, focus on health not weight, men’s issues, an update on the End Bullying Now Campaign and the Size Savvy Project introduced by the Clark County Chapter in Nevada this year.  The evenings will be filled with fun; like a networking party, pizza party, talent show and karaoke with a swim party to cap off every evening.

A convention site with more complete details and registration for both conference and hotel will be available soon.

NAAFA works to eliminate discrimination based on body size and provide people with tools for self-empowerment through public education, advocacy, and member support.
