Dear Members and Advocates,

Every FAC member should be aware of NARSOL (the National Association for Rational Sex Offense Laws).  FAC is the Florida state organization that is aligned with the national efforts of NARSOL.  We have expressly agreed to be the Florida state affiliate for NARSOL in our mutual efforts to reform laws that impact Persons Forced to Register (PFR).  The hope is to develop an affiliate organization in every state, all working together to raise awareness, respond to legislation that will reform the laws, and ultimately abolish the public Registry.

Each year, NARSOL sponsors a conference and brings together hundreds of attendees to discuss legal cases, media campaigns, organizational development, and even the much needed self-care that keeps us all moving forward for another year.  NARSOL presents a quality annual conference that has been attended by many known researchers, professors, attorneys and advocates over the years. Organized and run totally by dedicated NARSOL volunteers, the annual conferences feature dynamic, headlining speakers, informative workshop topics, and unique networking opportunities for members and advocates.

We are proud to share that five of the break-out sessions will be presented by FAC members.  Click here to see the line-up for the 2024 conference. You can also watch the key speakers and conference sessions from the comfort of you home by signing up for the Livestream at https://secure.narsol.org/conference-signup-live-stream/

We have come a long way from the first NARSOL conference in 2009 that was held in a secret location in Boston.  At the early conferences, many advocates used a pseudonym and attendees were required to register before knowing the exact location. By 2012, though, NARSOL was welcomed in cities across the country, and the conferences became widely publicized.

The 2024 NARSOL conference begins this Friday, June 21 and from Noon-1:00pm, FAC will be gathering for a special Meet-and-Greet with the Board of Directors, County Coordinators, FAC members and guests that will be attending the conference.  After the introductions, FAC will present Spirit Awards to members that have demonstrated their dedication to FAC and to the mission of educating the public, media and legislators.  If your name is called, we will arrange to deliver the Spirit Award to you in person.  You are invited to join us by Zoom or phone to celebrate with the team.
