Midwest Child & Youth Care Conference
Waukesha, WI
The Board of Directors of the Wisconsin Association of Child and Youth Care Professionals, Inc. (WACYCP), in cooperation with our sponsors and supporters, is pleased to announce our "YOUTH WORKERS ON THE RISE"-Midwest Regional Child and Youth Care Conference, May 25, 26 & 27 at the Waukesha County Technical College (WCTC) in the scenic Kettle-Moraine district of Waukesha, Wisconsin.

Come see how our 41-year-old child and youth care professional organization has been advancing child and youth care from an occupation to a career! It's time that child and youth care workers are recognized for the professionals they are and WACYCP can demonstrate the numerous ways in which that is happening across the state of Wisconsin.

This event will feature both regional and national speakers and workshop presenters, on a wide range of practical and informative topics aimed at improving service delivery and program planning, plus the professionalization of the child and youth care field. We warmly encourage both new and veteran presenters to download and print the attached Request For Proposals(RFP) and return it by the Monday, September 14, 2009 deadline.

We also encourage you and your organizations to take advantage of our sponsorship opportunities (brochure deadline Sept. 30), which will help you reach youth care administrators, supervisors, board members and other decision makers, on a state and regional basis. Just select either of the attached corporate or agency documents, and follow the respective instructions. Our event is expected to attract 400-500 youth care workers from the full spectrum of child and youth care work and throughout the Midwest.

A conference brochure and registration form will be available shortly into 2010. However, for more details or if you have trouble opening attachments, please contact Jody Rhodes at: jodyrhodes@sbcglobal.net or call the WACYCP Milwaukee headquarters at (414) 227-3130.
