TNOYS’ Annual Conference is the event for youth , young adults, and the professionals who serve them to connect and grow!
For over four decades, this conference has brought together people who care about improving the youth-serving systems (child welfare, homelessness services, etc.) that impact young people’s lives. What’s more, TNOYS’ conference is unique because professionals and youth and young adults join together as attendees, putting the power of youth-adult partnership into action.
The conference takes place June 10 – 13 at Houston’s Westin Galleria. If you are a youth or young adult (YYA) aged 15-26 or know YYA who may want to attend, read on to learn about the experience and how to sign up!
Why Youth Should Attend TNOYS’ Conference
Starting from Day 1, youth and young adults attending the conference will get a special welcome just for them, introducing the exclusive, youth-friendly workshops that the event has to offer. The conference features a “youth-only” track of workshops with topics like managing stress and emotions, leadership skills and mentorship, financial education and resources for YYA, and much more.
Throughout the conference, there are multiple opportunities for youth and young adults from all over Texas to meet one another and build supportive relationships. They can also meet various providers and organization leaders, allowing them to practice their networking skills and tap into experiences such as mentorship, internship programs, collaborations, and more! These moments can be the start of lasting connections and memories.
