A pre/post survey conducted by Dr. Nura Sediqe demonstrated the conference's impact, showing a 71% increase in participants' reported sense of belonging. The event provided a safe space for candid dialogue, professional development, and relationship-building across various learning blocks. An addition to the 2024 program was the inaugural Alumni Summit, which included service activities that provided school supplies and footwear to newly arrived Afghan families, demonstrating the organization's commitment to supporting recent immigrants within the diaspora community. Since 2015, AACO has engaged thousands of participants, serving as a valuable forum for empowering Afghan-Americans and addressing pressing issues within the diaspora community. The conference continues to foster an inclusive environment and facilitate meaningful connections across the Afghan-American diaspora.
