Join us for a 3-day conference exploring model programs with positive results for youth and their families.

The goal of the Blueprints conference is to disseminate science-based information on youth violence, delinquency, and drug prevention programs that are effective. This conference will motivate the prevention field to adopt evidence-based programs and provide support, guidance, and tools by program experts to help practitioners implement these programs successfully in their own communities.

The purpose of bringing evidence-based programs together in one location is to provide a first-class conference that offers continuing education and networking opportunities for model and promising evidence-based prevention and intervention programs for youth and their families. This conference is the first-of-its-kind and sets a foundation for future collaboration among evidence-based programs.

Participants will include community prevention advocates, department heads of agencies responsible for violence and drug prevention efforts, state and local government leaders responsible for prevention funding and initiatives, leaders of the criminal justice systems, and program implementers.
