Paul Munger Conference for Youth-Serving Professionals, Munger Advanced Workshops - Call for Proposals

Proposals for the 2008 Paul Munger Conference are now being accepted. The conference will be at Indiana University, Bloomington on June 16-19, 2008. The Munger Conference (June 16-18, 2008) provides current and relevant information to youth-serving professionals seeking to improve and enrich their work. Suited particularly for counselors in educational and agency settings, any individual who works with youth will find this conference to be a quality source of professional development. For the fourth year in succession, the Indiana Pathways to College Network will co-sponsor the conference and offer a strand of presentations that address college access and success. In recent years, presentations at the Munger Conference have included topics such as eating disorders, avoiding burn-out, confidentiality in school counseling, suicide risk factors for adolescents, reducing depression, increasing Latino parental involvement, updates on financial aid, GLBTQ students in schools, LMHC licensure updates, and increasing student engagement.

New this year!
The Munger Advanced Workshops (June 19, 2008) provide half-day sessions with advanced content which allows presenters to take the topics to a deeper level. Presentations should facilitate participants leaving with ideas and skills they can implement in their work with youth. All presenters receive free registration for the Munger Conference and the Advanced Workshops. If you are interested in presenting at this year’s Munger Conference or the Advanced Workshops, please submit a proposal online by March 17, 2008.
