The STARS National Conference is a youth-driven conference with a focus on leadership, mentoring, and abstinence!

"The SNC is one of the best experiences of my life. With interactive speakers, small groups and informative workshops, students and adults alike have the time of their life." Nicole Verdejo-Santos - Florida

The STARS National Conference is an action-packed four-day event that motivates and empowers teens to abstain from high-risk behaviors including tobacco, alcohol, other drugs, violence and pre-marital sex. Teens will build important life-skills on how to set boundaries in relationships, say no to peer pressure and be a positive influence in their communities.

"STARS changed my life. I think it can help my friends."
Student Participant

This conference provides powerful training for teens who are mentors, speakers and leaders in their communities.

Year after year conference participants overwhelmingly agree that the people play a major part in making the conference dynamic and fun! They will learn from a diverse group of peers and adults, and will have the opportunity to begin lifetime friendships.
