Prevention of Youth Substance Abuse in Rural Communities is the only national conference that focuses on the unique challenges of prevention from a rural context. The three day annual conference includes nationally recognized keynote speakers, breakout sessions, and optional evening activities. The theme of this year's conference will focus on engaging with important, but often missing prevention partners, especially parents, law enforcement, and the faith community. In addition, a two day Pre-Conference Grant Writing Survival Camp is available to the first fifty registrants at an additional cost of $175.
