Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Conference

Posted by on December 2, 2005

The HHS/Family and Youth Services Bureau (FYSB) is a member of the Federal Coordinating Council on Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. The Council’s 2006 Conference, “Building on Success: Providing Today’s Youth With Opportunities for a Better Tomorrow,” will be held January 10-13, 2006 in Washington, DC.

The Conference will address four themes identified by the White House Task Force for Disadvantaged Youth:
– helping youth with the greatest need,
– strengthening families,
– holding programs (and ourselves) accountable, and
– identifying what works.

Workshops, sponsored by eight different federal agencies, will cover a range of topics affecting at-risk youth including mentoring, family violence, foster care, positive youth development, and many more!

As registration for the conference is limited, early registration is recommended. The registration deadline is December 9, 2005.
