NATIONAL YOUTH WORKERS CONVENTION

I just wanted to get a little buzz going about the current Youth Specialties' National Youth Workers Convention. The Sacramento meeting is over with Pittsburgh and Nashville to come. I will personally be attending the Nashville meeting.

Is anyone else going? What are you looking forward to?

Was anyone in Sacramento? Have any experiences to share? Advice to give?

This will be my 4th NYWC and I'm definitely looking forward to it. So much to learn!

This will be my 18 convention! Hard to believe I've been to that money, but it's always fun and students benefit from the experience.; ▶ Reply to This

It's research I've been doing for the past two years, examining the current state (not healthy) and looking for the practices that healthy partnerships engage in which promote successful ministry together.; ▶ Reply to This
