The Maine Youth Action Network (MYAN) and the Youth Planning Team (YPT) would like to invite you to this year's 22nd Annual Peer Leadership Conference. On October 27 th and 28 th over 400 youth leaders and their advisors from all around the state of Maine will be coming together in Bar Harbor. 'Youth got Power, Keepin' it Alive!' this year's theme, comes from the power all youth have to make a difference, dream a dream, and to inspire themselves and others.

The Conference was planned by 15 YPT youth and their advisors, in collaboration with the Maine Youth Action Network. The YPT has been hard at work since early August taking care of all aspects of the conference to make sure that everything will go well on October 27th and 28th. From booking a keynote speaker to deciding what the theme of the conference will be, the YPT has been involved all the way. MYAN believes that the youth input for the conference will lead to one of the most successful conferences yet.
