Annual Conference of Agencies and Organizations
Serving Troubled Youth
WHAT: For 32 years a multi-agency collaboration involving professionals working in all areas of human service has presented this nationally recognized conference. The mission of these agencies and professionals is to provide the multitude of services our at-risk population so desperately need if they are to develop successful life, pro-social and educational skills. This year, we present as our conference
The conference, which is completely self-funded, has grown from an audience of 50, in the beginning, to an average of 750; from 6-8 sessions to over 23; from 2 conference rooms to 6 breakout sessions at a time. We hope that you will choose this year to attend.
WHEN: Dates this year are Thursday, May 12th and Friday, May 13th. Pre-conference intensive training sessions will be Wednesday, May 11th. The conference will run Thursday 9:00am to 5:00pm and Friday 9:00am to 3:30pm. Check-In starts each day at 8:00am.
