In line with theme of the conference or the field of the social and behavioral sciences, you can help by submitting an abstract or proposal (paper, panel, roundtable, workshop.,etc) which addresses issues, problems and concerns in the America’s social structure and the global community. Other ways to support are as follow: a recruiter, session organizer(s,) sponsor(s) of a student or faculty, purchaser of program ad(s), W,E. B.

In regards to the benefits of the conference, it provides faculty, students, administrators, professional, and others with opportunities for academic, professional, and social development through the exchange or sharing of information, theory, practice and research. It also serves as a vehicle to publish in the journal of the organization- Journal of Social and Behavioral Sciences.
