Welcome to Healthy Communities • Healthy Youth

Renew Your Commitment to Kids at The BigTent Conference!

Back-to-school time means a flurry of refocused energy: new classes, new programs, new teachers, new lessons, and new students. In so much of our work with youth, this is a time of renewal. Some of us enter this time of year with a fresh sense of hope, ready to jump into the opportunities the year holds. Others enter with anxiety or doubts. How do we know—really know—we’re making a difference?
In the spirit of harnessing that hope and uniting against doubt, Search Institute is hosting the 2010 BigTent Conference.Check out our website to learn how you can be a part of it:
