Registration is open for the Women Graduates-USA 2026 Conference and Annual General Meeting, October 23–25, 2026, at the Drury Plaza Hotel St. Paul Downtown in St. Paul, Minnesota.

This year's theme, "Resistance: Carrying My Grain of Sand," reflects the spirit that has always defined WG-USA — we resist, we contribute, and we build. At the Conference:

• Get trained in how to resist, how to carry our own grain of sand. Explore how our individual actions, however small they may seem, contribute to the world we are working to create.

• Hear personal stories of resistance, especially from our supported IIE Rescue Scholars

• Understand how individuals resisted ICE from Minnesotans lived the experience

• Be inspired and challenged by our keynote speaker, Dr. Christina Ewig, Professor of Public Affairs, Director of the Center on Women, Gender and Public Policy at the Humphrey School of Public Affairs, University of Minnesota.
