1 JUSTICE CONFERENCE THE Local Host Partner Overview JUNE CHICAGO Auditorium Theatre

2 Our vision is to serve the discovery of ideas, celebrate the beauty of justice, and foster a community of people who live justice together.

3 Hello. My name is Mark Reddy. I am the executive producer of The JUSTICE CONFERENCE. Our conference draws together a diverse faith and justice community and has emerged as a premier gathering for Christian leaders, justice practitioners, students, and learners from all over the world. We have held the conference in different cities for the past four years. We have designed The JUSTICE CONFERENCE to catalyze and scale the idea of Living Justice as a lifestyle for a broad and influential audience. The JUSTICE CONFERENCE is one of the largest biblical and social justice conferences. It plays an important role in the framing of a biblical and social justice dialogue focused on what it means to Live Justice Together. Each year The JUSTICE CONFERENCE hosts world-renowned visionaries, thought leaders, justice practitioners, faith leaders, worship leaders, and ground breaking artists. Our vision is to leverage the power of community and to catalyze the work of justice. To accomplish this, we are looking for Key Partners to host The Local JUSTICE CONFERENCE for a one-day event on June 06, Our Key Partner Host sites will bring their unique voice to the mix while making the Conference accessible to those unable to attend in Chicago. These local conference sites will help support existing momentum for Authentic Justice Movements Locally. I can t wait for this year s conference. We are expecting it to be a powerful time together. The JUSTICE CONFERENCE is a significant leadership platform for the faith and justice community. With your support, together we have an important opportunity to refocus the biblical and social justice dialogue to what it means to: Live Justice Together! I sincerely hope that you consider hosting a local site together with us this year! In Justice and Truth, Mark Reddy Executive Producer

11 What are the commitment ticket sales? How does marketing and branding work? Satellite Of Love The JUSTICE CONFERENCE will cover the expenses of providing the content from the Chicago Primary site while the Partner Sites will need to commit to covering any expenses required to provide Local Content including: speaker/artist fees and any local infrastructure costs required to receive the Live Video Link etc. Hottest Ticket in Town The partnership model is based on an up front buy-in cost of $2500 which provides the exclusive rights to host The Local JUSTICE CONFERENCE in your community. In order to maximize your reach, we also recommend your Local JUSTICE CONFERENCE is hosted as a ticketed free event. The caliber of our globally recognized speaker and artists guarantees your event to be the hottest ticket in town! These speakers combined with your local speakers add up to a not-tomiss event. One Voice We work hard to maintain a strong, clear and consistent expression of The JUSTICE CONFERENCE in all marketing and communications. In order to unite our Partner Sites with the brand and message of the Conference, we will supply a Partner Site Branding Kit. Please refer to the kit for resources and guidelines, and contact The JUSTICE CONFERENCE for additional questions or requests. Tell It On The Mountains This is your town. You know how to reach your audience. We ask that all local marketing include The JUSTICE CONFERENCE branding, values and mission. We suggest broadcasting of the event to local/regional constituents on a consistent and regular basis. Use social networking like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and blasts. Please direct your targeted audience to thejusticeconference.com to register for your host site as this is the only way to purchase tickets.

12 All Are Welcome Some of the greatest moments or pivots in people s lives occur when attending a conference. We are counting on that happening this year at your Local Host Site. In order to achieve this, we need to create the feeling of professionalism and organization that all great conferences possess. Partner Sites should provide: A well-staffed registration table with individuals armed with all the knowledge of the conference. Light refreshments during breaks, including coffee and water. Some partner sites go as far as bringing in food trucks. Wow! Concierge assistance with nearby restaurants, hotels, maps, coupons, etc. Hometown Hero What s a conference without a great host? Each Local Partner Site will feature their own Emcee from their community who will direct the back and forth between the simulcast, interface with the mood and temperament of the attendees, keep the conference on schedule, introduce local speaking guests, and make announcements. Local Change Makers We believe there is no moratorium on ideas that will change the world. That s why it s so important for us at The JUSTICE CONFERENCE to work with our local partners to identify local Change Makers who can speak briefly at your host site. Each local site will work with us to book 3 speakers to share what they are doing locally and globally. Each speaker will weave into the breaks of the Live Stream coming from Chicago.
