CASC’s special topic-focused virtual conference (Equity, Disparity and Student Mental Health), calling for the Revolution in long neglected areas of service for students, is less than two months away. We are anticipating 3,000 attendees from throughout California and the nation including many professional walks-of-life!
What we are hearing from those registering already: “These topics are so important…race-based trauma, mental health support for all kids is needed NOW.†“So happy CASC is modeling their online conference with the American School Counselors Association recent virtual conference, which I loved.†“I am particularly looking forward to being in chat rooms with teachers, administrators and fellow school counselors from other states.â€
What is a benefit of online conference? To start, you will avoid the time and cost of travel, and you will learn more. Have you ever gone to a conference and been disappointed to learn two sessions you would love to attend are happening at the same time? With a virtual conference, you can have access to session recordings long after the conference ends. Sessions will cover a range of topics and with 50+ workshops being featured, these recordings are a big plus for attendees. You will meet a national audience, have live chats, and participate in play and learn sessions that can be applied to your virtual classrooms with students.
Lastly, the overhead for a virtual conference is less than in-person conferences and we are passing these savings down to you! And there is even more savings for CASC members! So, if you are not a member, this would be a good time to join and save. Registration starts at $129 for 2.5 days. Do not miss out - registration rates will increase on Sunday!
