Regional & National APA Planning Conference

Aspiring planners at Cal Poly Pomona have a rare opportunity to attend the Regional & State Planning Conferences—immersive experiences that connect students with industry leaders, cutting-edge ideas, and invaluable professional networks. These conferences open doors to career-shaping insights and mentorships, but without financial support, many students won’t have the chance to attend. Your generosity can help bridge that gap and ensure they gain the knowledge and connections needed to shape the future of our communities.

With your support, we can cover the essential costs—airfare, lodging, entrance fees, and transportation—so that our students can focus on learning, networking, and growing as the next generation of planning professionals. Every dollar you give is an investment in their future and in the cities and communities they will one day design. Make an impact today and help our students take this crucial step toward their dreams!

All university programs and activities are open and available to all regardless of race, sex, color, ethnicity or national origin. Consistent with California law and federal civil rights laws, Cal Poly Pomona provides equal opportunity in education and employment without unlawful discrimination or preferential treatment based on race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin.
