Virtual Childfree Convention 2024

This year's theme: The online Childfree community and its impact

Join the live chat audience Q&A! Live streaming on Sunday, August 4th, 2024 beginning at
7 AM PT/10 AM ET (recording will be available for viewing afterward).

Hosted on Childfree Convention YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/c/childfreeconvention

This year’s virtual Childfree Convention is centred around one theme: Is Childfree Content Sustainable?

We 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?

📣Panel 1: The Childfree Life Cycle

Discovery – Am I alone?
Expression – Can I say this out loud?
Acceptance - What’s after Childfree?

🗣️Speakers: Dann Alexander, Christine Erickson, LeNora Faye, Isabel Firecracker, Dr. Angela L. Harris, Cody Hetzel, Therese Shechter, Kristen Tsetsi


📣Panel 2: Aggressively Childfree

During 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.

Thankfully, Helene, who is well-versed on this topic agreed to return and set the record straight!

🗣️Speaker: Helene Gustavsson


📣Panel 3: Hey, Childfree Community: Do something!

Is “Childfree” at risk of becoming a four-letter word and weaponized by pronatalists who want to push their agenda? Call to action!

🗣️Speakers: Dann Alexander, Christine Erickson, LeNora Faye, Isabel Firecracker, Dr. Angela L. Harris, Cody Hetzel, Therese Shechter, Kristen Tsetsi

What is childfree?

Childfree 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).
