Answer the Call
You’ve Got What We Need
We said it and we meant it…we dare to dream of a new era, and we want to make sure the best parts of the new ways we’ve been doing things in a COVID-world are here to stay.
What did you do or learn when you were freed from the can’ts and won’ts of yesterday?
What new bounds should we chart for ourselves and our work?
How did embracing flexibility and ambiguity liberate you to try new things?
How are you cultivating healing—inwardly and/or outwardly?
We know you’ve been doing amazing work, and we can’t wait to connect and share with you.

What Are We Looking For?
It Has to Fit
All sessions at the Healthy Teen Network conference must be aligned with our Guiding Principles.
Yep, We’ve Got the Final Say
We reserve the right to reject any session proposal, at our discretion. We may need to change your session type, room setup, or other details (we’ll still talk it through with you first).
Show Us the Magic!
We highly encourage interactive, diverse, and unique sessions. Need some tips on how to make your presentation fabulous? Our trainers have got your back!
Not Your First Time? That’s Ok!
Session proposals do not need to be unique—if you’ve submitted it or facilitated it before, that’s just fine.
Pick Your Type
75-Minute Sessions

What Do I Need to Bring?
What We’ve Got
All sessions get standard AV:
- Wireless internet
- LCD projector and projection screen
- Speakers
- Presenter remote
- Easel, paper pad, and markers
BYOC
You must bring your own computer, if you want to display a presentation on the projection screen and connect to the LCD projector.
Only Use Apple Products?
We get it—we love Apple, too. But if you are using an Apple computer to share presentation material on the projection screen, you must bring your own adapter to connect to the LCD projector (and any other connecting tools you might need to connect anything else, like speakers.)
What Else Is There?
You Gotta Register
All presenters must register and pay to attend the conference by Wednesday, June 29, 2022.
We cannot offer an honorarium or pay travel, per diem, or lodging expenses (we sure wish we could!).
We do offer a discount of 15% on conference registration to the lead presenter only. Registration isn’t open yet, but check out the rates for 2022.
We Hope You Won’t Cancel, But If Life Happens…
You must notify Healthy Teen Network within 30 days of confirming your participation, if you are not able to present at the conference. If you do not let us know more than 24 hours before your session, you will not be eligible to present at a Healthy Teen Network event for two years.
