Leadership Conference – Register

The provided lunch is gluten free. If you require a vegetarian, vegan, or alternative dietary accommodation, please note that in your registration, or email [email protected]. For day-of questions regarding food accommodations, please visit the Registration Help Desk.

A new parent’s room and a prayer space will be provided (please check the Conference Program on-site for details about locations).

MCN strives to ensure that all our conferences are accessible to all individuals. If you have accommodation requests, such as sign language interpreters or other accessibility requirements, please submit your request during the online registration process or via email at [email protected]. Although we will attempt to meet all accessibility requests, requests submitted after May 7 may not be fulfilled.

Attendees who are unable to attend the conference may send a substitute to attend in their place; please submit the change via email to MCN’s registrar.

Cancellations received by May 7 will receive a refund minus a $35 processing fee.

No refunds are available after May 7. Please see MCN’s full Registration Policies for more details.

We encourage you to pay the registration rate that is meaningful to and possible for you and/or your organization. While earned revenue from our events is a significant portion of our operating budget, supporting the policy and advocacy work we do on behalf of nonprofits, we aim to keep our fees accessible, often below market rate, and offer further reduced entry points for those who need them to participate in professional development.

If your participation is dependent on a PWYC rate, please register with the promo code that corresponds with your accessible price point below through May 21 (PDF Registration Form coming soon).

You will not be asked to complete an application to prove need. PWYC rates are the scholarship model for this year’s Conference.

Pay What You Can Rates (available through May 21):

• $129 (Code: PWYC129)
• $159 (Code: PWYC159)

MCN strives to ensure our conferences are accessible to all nonprofits, regardless of size or ability to pay. We encourage you to pay the rate that is meaningful and possible for you using our Pay What You Can rates (PWYC).

PWYC is the scholarship option for the conference. See above for information to register. You will not be asked to complete an application to prove need.

The 2026 Nonprofit Leadership Conference is a perfect venue for you to get your brand in front of an engaged nonprofit audience. If you have products or services to share with Minnesota nonprofit leaders and decision-makers, email John Wurm about Exhibitor and Sponsor information.

Conference registration guarantees access to a choice of breakout sessions at different times throughout the conference schedule. However, registration does not guarantee a seat in a specific individual breakout session.

Sessions are assigned rooms in advance of the conference. The safety of conference attendees is always a primary concern, and may include closing a room if attendance exceeds the room capacity. We encourage early arrival to breakout sessions to help ensure that a seat is available.

Please note that session slides and handouts are made available following the conference in the Download Center so you are still able to access materials from missed sessions.

Please note that we are not offering Small and Large Team discount registrations for this year’s conference.
