Held annually since 1966, the College Councils Conference brings college Knights together from across North America. Attendees participate in a dynamic program of prayer, inspiring speakers, networking opportunities, and leadership training. This year’s conference will be held in New Haven, Connecticut, on September 29-October 1, 2023.
Conference registrants will attend our annual Awards Banquet where we announce the Outstanding College Council Award winners as well as the winners of several other prestigious awards. Attendees can also look forward to keynote addresses, training sessions, panels, and main stage presentations on council best practices, leadership development, and living as a Catholic gentleman. This trip to the birthplace of our Order will also include a visit to the Blessed Michael McGivney Pilgrimage Center and Mass at St. Mary’s Church - the burial site of Blessed Michael J. McGivney. At this conference you will have the opportunity to meet, network, and exchange ideas with over 200 college council leaders from nearly 100 councils across North America, and exchange ideas and best practices with them.
Each college council should plan to send at least two students to this year’s conference. The Supreme Council will cover the travel costs, food and lodging for these students, as well as the council chaplain. You won’t want to miss out on this exciting opportunity to take your council to new levels of success this fraternal year!
