Dear Community Partners,
We are excited to invite your organization to participate in Connected, Not Controlled (CNCC) Day on Tuesday, July 21, 2026, from 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM. This community-wide event will focus on digital safety, technology-facilitated abuse awareness, and the growing role of AI and technology in advocacy work.
This full-day training and awareness event will bring together advocates, educators, counselors, law enforcement, and community partners to explore how technology can both support and endanger survivors of domestic violence, sexual violence, and human trafficking. Sessions will include topics such as online safety, AI and advocacy, digital crimes, human trafficking and technology, online gaming safety for youth, and practical tools advocates can use to better support clients.
We understand that stepping away from work for an entire day can be challenging, especially for organizations serving the community directly. Therefore, we encourage agencies to consider having at least 1–3 representatives from their organization attend and bring the information back to their teams. Our hope is to create a collaborative learning environment while making participation manageable for everyone. Please send this to other members of your organization.
To support attendees throughout the day:

Lunch will be provided
Participants will receive a certificate of attendance
There will be opportunities for networking, discussion, and hands-on learning

The last day to register is Friday, June 26, 2026. Additional details regarding the event location, agenda, parking, and logistics will be shared with registered participants closer to the event date.

We truly believe this event will provide valuable tools and insight that can strengthen advocacy efforts across Northern Nevada and help our community better respond to technology-facilitated harm.
We hope you will join us and be part of this important conversation.
Thank you for your continued partnership and commitment to community safety.
