Interested in coming to CSI’s 2024 Convening but need to convince your boss that the funds are worth spending? Check out this letter template below!

Dear [insert your boss’s name],

I would love to attend the Clean Slate Initiative’s 2024 Convening, taking place in Philadelphia, PA, on June 13-14. This is a unique opportunity to engage with people who play key roles in Clean Slate efforts across the country, including meeting with more directly impacted advocates who are at the center of this work.

I’ve selected this conference above others because I’m excited about the opportunities for networking, professional development, and advancing our organization’s work. [Insert specific skill(s) or program session(s) related to your role that you’re particularly excited about.]

The Clean Slate Initiative’s 2024 Convening is intentionally structured as an intimate space to foster networking and practical sessions for key takeaways. They have worked to ensure the conference is accessible and transformational. The cost for me to attend would be [insert current ticket price], plus [insert travel and lodging costs]. Overall, the Convening is a key opportunity to connect, learn, and grow our part in the Clean Slate movement, and I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to attend.

Thank you for your consideration,

[Your name]
