General Assembly
General Assembly (GA) is the annual meeting of our Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA). Participants worship, witness, learn, connect, and make policy for the Association through democratic process. Anyone may attend; congregations must certify annually to have voting delegates.
General Assembly 2025

The Local Area Task Force (LATF) for 2025 is forming now. This is a group of GA volunteers who work under the direction of the Local Area Coordinator, Valerie Hsu, handling important arrangements and recruiting volunteers for various jobs during GA. Teams led by the LATF include: Information & Concierge Services, Greeters / "Ask Me" Volunteers, Atmosphere, Social Justice Project, Traveling Chalice Manager, and more. If you live in the Baltimore area and are interested in serving on the LATF, contact Valerie at galocaltaskforce@gmail.com.
Most GA events will take place at the Baltimore Convention Center, 1 W Pratt St, Baltimore, MD 21201
There are 61 UUA congregations within 100 miles of Charm City.
Each year, General Assembly is made possible by the contributions of hundreds of volunteers who do everything from editing videos for the on-demand library to hanging banners in the convention center. Volunteers are offered full-time registration for General Assembly.
Congregations are encouraged to use registration Gift Certificates to support their delegates’ participation.
Gift certificates can be purchased in any amount, so congregations can support delegates as their budgets allow.
In order to raise interest and to help Unitarian Universalist congregations and partner organizations learn more about General Assembly, we have assembled promotional resources to download, copy, or print for further distribution.
In addition to volunteering opportunities, there are discounts available to first-timers and members of historically marginalized communities. There is also funding available to support youth and young adults, and registration and limited housing support for those with need.

GA is an unforgettable experience for the 2,500+ attendees from 1,000+ UU congregations. We are pleased to provide premium sponsorship packages, virtual exhibit booths, and other advertising opportunities which will provide top-notch exposure to your organization.
In addition to business sessions, the General Assembly program offers workshops, lectures, and worship and witness opportunities during the four days of GA.
Delegates use the GA Delegate Platform for discussion and voting during General Sessions. You must have a delegate credential and be registered for GA to access the delegate platform.
Every effort will be made to provide you with accommodations or assistive equipment to enable or enhance your GA experience. Whether you're attending in person or virtually, an Accessibility Services Coordinator will be available before and during GA to provide information and coordinate assistance to individuals with accessibility needs.
Long Term Sustainability Goals:
Maintain carbon neutrality in 2025 and beyond, advance stakeholder education and engagement, continuously improve sustainable sourcing, and create a positive social impact and lasting legacy on our host community.
