23rd Annual Walk In My Shoes Youth Conference For High School and Middle School Students
Thursday, November 17, 2011
California State University, Fullerton, Titan Student Center
Registration 7:45; Program 8:30 - 1:15
Each year for the past twenty-two years, OC Human Relations has brought together schools from all over Orange County to attend a day long youth conference. Participants explore issues of identity and culture, develop their leadership skills and be exposed to examples of successful youth activism. Our goal is to emplower and mobilize students to work towards creating positive social change.
Students attend three one-hour workshops, choosing from over 20 different thought provoking sessions related to the broad theme of "human relations". Youth and experienced human relations presenters share their insights, experiences and expertise on subjects related to the theme.
Students Say:
"Workshops at WIMS should be at every high school; all information is so vital to today's youth."
"I think this day was absolutely wonderful; I am more aware of issues around us today and I could spread that awareness in my school and community." "It was very inspiring - I want to stop the stereotyping at my school."
Call for Presenters
We are always on the outlook for presenters who can offer youth-friendly workshops on topics related to youth organizing, social justice, youth activism, leadership, culture, ethnic and current issues and healthy living.
