Registration Fee: $50

What?? Why is there a registration fee?

We'd prefer not to have a fee, but because of the size of the group, we need an accurate head count so that we can cover the costs of meals and refreshments. Your fee covers breakfast and lunch on both days. We regret that we are unable to offer single day rates.

Registration is non-transferable, and first-come, first served. We anticipate the event may sell out, so please register early.

Door prizes!
Two lucky retreat participants will be selected at random to receive a grant for their organization. It's our way of apologizing for the registration fee! The drawing will take place at the closing plenary session on Friday, October 15. You must be present to win. Two grants will be awarded, one for $5,000, and one for $2,500.

We ♥ LA: an Urban Retreat for LA's Passionate Leaders is hosted by the Durfee Foundation.
