#ALC50 – How We Did It: Take a Look Behind the Scenes

We hoped you enjoyed the 50th Annual Legislative Conference (ALC)! The more than 80 policy sessions, signature events, and a finale celebration made for a week of action-packed education, networking, civic engagement, and enjoyment of Black Excellence Unparalleled. Now, we’d like to share a bit about how we executed such a robust virtual convening.

Of course, our virtual platform PheedLoop was a big help and we’re so glad to learn that 95% of attendees surveyed had a positive engagement experience. If you haven’t yet completed the survey, please do so here.

We worked with Congressional Black Caucus members to facilitate and record their sessions. Then, we developed coordinating graphics to brand the platform and our production team created the polished virtual sessions available for view during ALC week.

For our signature events, the Day of Healing, the National Town Hall, and the Phoenix Awards we filmed with our remarkable performers and speakers at stages and locations across the country: Washington, DC, Los Angeles, and Atlanta to name a few. The events broadcasted on BET for our #FoundationFriday featured stage designs that brought our 2021 ALC brand and theme to life. The virtual Black Party set the celebratory vibe to close out #ALC50 on a high note.

In case you missed it, you can still register and view many of our policy sessions for free on-demand in our virtual platform! If you’re already registered and want to watch it again, log back into your platform home page here.
