Youth Worker Conference At I.U.

Last updated on Tuesday, June 19, 2007

(BLOOMINGTON) - A conference for people who work with youth is underway on the Bloomington campus of Indiana University.

The 44th annual Paul Munger Conference for Youth-serving Professionals features more than 50 seminars on topics ranging from nutrition to pre-adolescent stress.

Indiana Schools Superintendent Dr. Sue Ellen Reed says it reminds counselors and other attendees about the important role they play in students' lives.

The conference began more than four decades ago as a seminar primarily for school counselors. In the last several years, the program has expanded to include teachers, therapists, and other youth-serving professionals.

It is named after the late Paul F. Munger, former chair of the then Department of Counseling and Guidance in the school of education until 1984.
