Propose a Youth Program for WLA Fall Conference

WAPL Conference registration has just opened! And while it's too late to get a program proposal in, there is still time to pitch a children's, teen or general youth program for the fall conference in Lake Geneva.

We are huge advocates here for getting our YSS members to create awesome youth program content for our state conferences. Who knows better than YOU how to create valuable programs (virtual, in-person and outreach); how to take service to the next level; how to create strong partnerships on behalf of youth; how to create fun experiences for kids and families; how to create an amazing collection; how to be a great leader and project manager - and so much more.

So share your ideas and expertise! If you are not too sure about solo presenting, then fill in the handy-dandy form at our YSS blog (located under the board member's names on the right hand side of the blog and titled: Conference Collaboration Interest Form). Our helpful board will connect you with someone who can co-present with you!

So go for it! We want to hear your cool stuff! Details on deadlines below:
