Moira is trained as a sociologist, earning her master’s and doctoral degrees from the University of California, Santa Barbara.

In order to be eligible for these discounts, your group must meet ALL of these requirements: 1) all individuals must be associated with the SAME coalition or organization, 2) the coalition or organization must be a member of CADCA (if a non-member, you must purchase a membership to get the reduced group rate), 3) your group must contain a minimum of 5 FULL-PAYING individuals (scholarship recipients, speakers, and guests do not count towards members of the group) and 4) to be eligible for the group rate, all members must be registered at the same time and pay in one transaction using one form of payment.

Youth: To qualify to receive the discounted youth fee, the participant must be 20 years of age or younger as of August 2.  If you plan to attend the NYLI and are 21 years old or older, you must pay the adult rate.  All youth registrants must also submit a Parent Consent Form, available online. No children may attend sessions unless they are a paid, registered attendee.

Guest: Guest/spouse access is limited to the welcome reception, breakfasts, breaks, and exhibits only (no training sessions). Coalition colleagues, industry employees, CADCA members and trainers, additional exhibitors, co-presenters, etc. do not qualify for the spouse rate and must register as a full attendee.

Registration Payment Policy

A completed registration with no form of payment or no purchase order does not guarantee the registration rate. CADCA will not process registration forms that do not include payment information. You are not considered registered for the conference until either payment or a purchase order has been received. Payment must be postmarked by the deadline dates above to get that rate. If your payment will not be postmarked by the current deadline, you must pay the higher rate.

Purchase Orders: Official Purchase Orders (PO) are accepted (not Purchase Requisitions) provided the following guidelines are met: purchase orders are a legal document guaranteeing payment but are not considered actual payment. If you submit a PO to CADCA, you are guaranteeing future payment for the full amount of the PO. Upon receipt of the PO, CADCA will email an invoice from which you should submit payment. POs must be received by CADCA via fax or email by the registration deadline to lock in the current rate. POs received after the above deadlines will be returned for adjustment to reflect the current rates. All payments sent via mail must be postmarked by the deadline dates above.

Credit Card Payment: If you register online, you will receive an immediate email confirmation of your registration. The information supplied on the Internet is passed through a secured server. Please note that credit card payment is required for those registering online. CADCA reserves the right to review each registration for the appropriateness of the selected registration category and make any necessary corrections. For example, a member that chooses the guest rate will be corrected upon review. CADCA reserves the right to charge his/her credit card the difference in registration fees.

Payment Change: Once payment is received, any change to the payment method (such as change in credit card numbers) will be treated as a cancellation and subject to a $75 administrative fee (per person). Re-registration will be charged at the current rates and a completed registration form is required for each attendee. CADCA will not process registration forms that do not include payment information.

Registration Cancellation & Substitution Policy

All requests for cancellations must be submitted in writing via email to [email protected]. Cancellation requests will be processed less a $75 administrative fee. Refunds will be processed within 45 days after the meeting. There will be NO refunds or credits will not be given for failure to attend, late arrival, unattended events or early departure. By submitting the registration form, you are agreeing to this cancelation policy.

CADCA does allow meeting registration substitutions but only for adults and the registration is still subject to the same cancellation policy. If the registration category is different (member vs. non-member), the new registrant is responsible for paying the difference (if any) at the time of substitution. If a refund is due, the payment will be processed upon conclusion of the meeting.
