DESCRIPTION:Virtual Childfree Convention 2024 \n\nThis year's theme:  The online 
 Childfree community and its impact\n\nJoin the live chat audience Q&A! Live 
 streaming on Sunday, August 4th, 2024 beginning at \n7 AM PT/10 AM ET 
 (recording will be available for viewing afterward). \n\nHosted on 
 Childfree Convention YouTube channel: 
 https://youtube.com/c/childfreeconvention\n\nThis year’s virtual 
 Childfree Convention is centred around one theme: Is Childfree Content 
 Sustainable?\n\nWe reached out to select speakers who have spent 
 significant time and resources creating next-level content to join us for 
 an in-depth look at the current state of the online Childfree community and 
 its impact. Is it making an impact?\n\n📣Panel 1: The Childfree Life 
 Cycle\n\nDiscovery – Am I alone?\nExpression – Can I say this out 
 loud?\nAcceptance - What’s after Childfree?\n\n🗣️Speakers: Dann 
 Alexander, Christine Erickson, LeNora Faye, Isabel Firecracker, Dr. Angela 
 L. Harris, Cody Hetzel, Therese Shechter, Kristen Tsetsi\n\n\n📣Panel 2: 
 Aggressively Childfree\n\nDuring last year’s panel, “(What does it mean 
 to be) Aggressively Childfree?”, we realized we had miscalculated how 
 aggressive the Aggressively Childfree community is. Hilarity somewhat 
 ensued during that livestream and we’ll talk about it during this special 
 panel.\n\nThankfully, Helene, who is well-versed on this topic agreed to 
 return and set the record straight!\n\n🗣️Speaker: Helene 
 Gustavsson\n\n\n📣Panel 3: Hey, Childfree Community: Do something!  
 \n\nIs “Childfree” at risk of becoming a four-letter word and 
 weaponized by pronatalists who want to push their agenda? Call to 
 action!\n\n🗣️Speakers: Dann Alexander, Christine Erickson, LeNora 
 Faye, Isabel Firecracker, Dr. Angela L. Harris, Cody Hetzel, Therese 
 Shechter, Kristen Tsetsi\n\nHTTPS://childfree.substack.com\n\n#childfree

 ________________________________________________________________\n\nWhat is 
 childfree?  \n\nChildfree is actively and freely choosing not have 
 children.  Reasons are as varied and nuanced as the individuals who make 
 this choice, including personal, social, philosophical, moral, economic, 
 climate/environmental and more 
 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voluntary_childlessness). \n\nNPR article:
