Good afternoon!
Registration is open for the Maryland Teen Connect 2021 Conference!
Please share this widely with colleagues and staff!
Here are the details:
WHO: This conference is for all staff interested in learning more about teen driven services and strengthening teen voice in their teen programs, spaces, community partnerships, and advocacy efforts for teens. If you were a registrant for the 2020 event, you will need to re-register for 2021 Teen Connect.
WHAT: Our Teen Connect 2021 Conference
WHEN: Tuesday, April 6 -- Friday, April 9, 2021
WHERE: Virtual, week-long blend of asynchronous/synchronous video-viewing, sharing, and discussion
WHY: To strengthen our understanding of youth services and youth voice in the areas of teen programming, spaces, partnerships, and advocacy
HOW: Teen Connect speakers will provide their content in pre-recorded videos for attendees to view asynchronously, prior to Teen Connect week. During Teen Connect Week, attendees will come together in live, synchronous morning sessions to view the shared videos and hear from the Speakers about their content. On Teen Connect Week afternoons, Table Talk facilitators will guide informal Discussion sessions on the topics of teen programs, spaces, partnerships, and advocacy. Each day will have a different focus for the morning presentations and afternoon discussions. The schedule for Teen Connect Week is posted on the Teen Connect website.
Here is the link to register for the Maryland 2021 Teen Connect Conference.
Due to the virtual nature of the Conference this year, there is no limit to registrations per system. Please note: those who registered for the 2020 event will need to re-register for the 2021 conference.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Carrie
