We are excited to welcome you to the ASHE 51st Annual Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico!. To help you plan your conference experience, please note that this year’s schedule has shifted: we will be gathering from Tuesday through Friday, rather than our traditional Wednesday through Saturday.

As we prepare to gather in Puerto Rico—a U.S. territory where residents do not have a vote in federal elections—we want to remind our community that this year's conference coincides with the U.S. congressional midterm elections. We encourage members to ensure your voices are heard by voting early or by absentee ballot before traveling. You can find specific state requirements and more information at
