A New exciting vision for Islam in America, help shape it!

Join us for an exciting weekend of interactive discussions, presentations and breakout sessions about the future of Islam in America.

This is our opportunity as American Muslims who represent the silent majority made up of reverts, second generation Muslims and professionals who want to take back our faith from destructive cultural habits, extremism and nationalistic views and focus our energy on defending our way of life from the internal and external threats that have plagued our communities for so long and start sharing the message of peace to humanity.

We call upon you to answer this call to action by gathering all together as like minded American Muslims to build a better tomorrow for ourselves, our children and our neighbors. A new Dawn is coming and your opportunity to get involved is here.

Bring your family and friends to be part of a new movement for change. Your opportunity to network with American Muslims from around the country.
