Healthy Communities • Healthy Youth Conference

2008 HCHY Conference

Looking Ahead to the 2008 Conference

On November 6-8, 2008, asset builders from across the country and the world will gather in Minneapolis, Minnesota, for our 12th annual Healthy Communities Healthy Youth Conference. 2008 also marks the 50th Anniversary of Search Institute and there is much to celebrate! We have chosen our theme, Igniting Sparks: Connect to Hope, because we know that when youth and adults connect with their innate gifts and creativity, their efforts bring renewed hope for the future. We also know each of us has found a spark that gives us the energy and ability to persevere, and an important part of our work is to help ignite this spark in others.
