CIP 2022 Youth Engagement
This year’s theme – Leading the Future: Young People as Partners for Change – aims to focus on elevating the voices of children, youth, and families whose lives have been impacted by incarceration. To accomplish this objective, we will be creating an advisory group made up of young people who have lived experience with parental incarceration to provide insight on how to better engage, support, and encourage the involvement of youth and young adults in the conference.
Our goal is to involve young people throughout the process of conference planning to assist with:
- Agenda planning
- Presenting/participating in discussion panels
- Learning how to share your experiences, ideas, and become an advocate for yourself and others
- Sharing ideas on potential sessions for young people that involve how to find their voice, further the CIP agenda, etc.
Click here for details on compensation, requirements and responsibilities, and share it with youths who you think will make great partners for change.
