Call for Workshop Proposals

Active Minds is seeking proposals from students, staff, and other professional presenters for its concurrent workshop sessions.  Workshop sessions are the primary way in which conference attendees share programs, methods, or tools that have helped reach a wide audience, are replicable on other campuses, and for which specific how-to steps can be taught. These sessions are commonly one hour long and time may be split between up to two distinct presenters.  For more information on workshops you can read session descriptions from last year's agenda.

This year we are encouraging chapters planning to attend the conference to apply early, particularly over the summer months, even if their funding is not yet approved or available.  Also, consider that your school may have funding opportunities for conference presenters.  Priority will be given to proposals that address the following categories:

If you have any questions about the workshops or the proposal process, please contact Maggie Bertram, Program Manager for Student-Led Initiatives (maggie@activeminds.org).

Call for Programming Expo Proposals

Active Minds is seeking proposals from students, staff, and other professional presenters for its Programming Expo. The Expo is an opportunity for presenters to show off their mental health programming successes to all conference attendees.  Each presenter is provided with a six foot table from which they may display and present their program.  This year, we plan to have between 40 and 50 participating presenters, and we hope one will be you! 

We are encouraging chapters planning to attend the conference to apply for an Expo spot early, particularly over the summer months, even if their funding is not yet approved or available.  Also, consider that your school may have funding opportunities for conference presenters.  Submissions may include campus-wide programming, community programming, chapter development programming (e.g., chapter retreat), and more. 

If you have any questions about the Expo or the proposal process, please contact Maggie Bertram, Program Manager for Student-Led Initiatives (maggie@activeminds.org).
