Youth at the Conference

Registration

We are excited to offer opportunities for youth to participate and engage with this year’s conference. Groups of students can register for the conference using the “Student Registration” ticket type. The recommended age range for student conference attendees is 10th grade and above, and a group size of 5-7 seems to work best for groups. Students enrolled in higher education are also welcome and encouraged to attend.

 

Photo Release Forms

We ask for photo release forms from conference attendees. Student attendees under the age of 18 will need to have a paper copy of the photo release form signed by their parents/guardians. Copies of the photo release form will be emailed to adult chaperones who register students for the conference upon registration, and should be returned prior to the conference. Any students who don’t complete the form, or who do not consent to have their photo taken, will have a sticker added to their name tag indicating they should not be photographed at the conference.​​

 

Goals & Expectations

MN Prevention Program Sharing is a professional conference, and youth and students are some of the most important partners in our work. We have been honored to learn with and from them over the years at Program Sharing. We also want to set student attendees up for success to participate and engage in this professional conference in a way that is accessible to them! Upon registration, students will be asked to complete a brief form to set personal goals and expectations for the conference. Chaperones bringing youth to the conference are also encouraged to review and share the Student Code of Conduct.
