Why Puzzles?
Yes, there are a ton of conferences out there - what makes this one so special you ask??? Here are our top 4 reasons:
  1. Presenters: While we bring in the headliners, we also shine spotlights on local unfamiliar rock stars. We strive to provide opportunities for those who are often overlooked.
  2. Cost: Offers an affordable national conference experience with a small group feel. Other national sexual violence conferences charge upwards of triple our registration fee ($125-$200 versus $375-$725, with most being $500+).
  3. Topic: Puzzles focuses entirely on campus sexual and dating violence.  
  4. Community: Puzzles is centered on the beauty and importance of building relationships and community. Our plentiful and hard-working team strive to create a personalized, connected, supportive, and welcoming conference experience tailored to you. Even though we are virtual this year, we believe you will continue to feel our personal connection!
So what are you waiting for? Register now!!

OVW Campus Grantees

OVW Grantees have been conditionally approved to attend this conference.
