3rd Annual Maine Parent Federation and GEAR Parent Network Conference

2/18/2020

 
Registration for the 3rd Annual Free Parent and Youth Conference, sponsored by Maine Parent Federation and GEAR Parent Network, is now open.
 
The conference  will be held on Saturday, March 14th, 2020 9:00 am - 4:00 pm at the Governor Hill Mansion, 136 State Street, Augusta.
 
This year’s conference topic is  Peer Support – It Takes a Village!
Come and learn about parent and youth peer supports and how you can benefit from receiving these free services available in our state! Also learn how parents and youth can become peer mentors themselves.
 
We will also have a very inspirational special guest speaker, 21 year old Self-Advocate Jake Shumbo.  Jake’s message of “Different Ability” versus “Disability” inspires his audiences to look beyond labels and how despite your ability you can be the leader of your own destiny.
 
Youth track is for youth ages 14+ will occur at same time as Parent Track workshops/panels.
 
Continental breakfast and lunch will be provided. 
 
I have attached both the flyer for advertising as well as the agenda of the days events. Please feel free to share both as much as possible.
