This year we will have a designated Youth Track on Day One of the conference (October 13th). The breakout sessions scheduled in this track are intended to specifically serve a high-school-aged audience. Applications to present in the Youth Track will be considered separately from other breakout sessions this year. Please review the intended audience for each track and decide which is the right fit for your proposed session:

Standard breakout session audience: Prevention professional with 0-6+ years in the field. Including, but not limited to, coalition leaders and members, prevention specialists, substance use and mental health professionals, college-students, educators, public health professionals, law enforcement, and faith leaders.

Youth track audience: High-school-aged members and leaders of community and school coalitions. Often student conference attendees will present their coalition work in breakout sessions or at exhibit booths at the conference. Students conference attendees look for a high level of engagement in sessions they attend: they are very interested in connecting with and learning from others doing similar work.
