YCSC Associates Events
In addition to a new webinar series for YCSC Associates launched in 2022, an annual meeting brings members of the group together each year in the fall to engage in presentations focused on the multi-faceted mission of the YCSC. These sessions, historically provided in-person, shifted to a virtual format in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, a virtual poster session, supplemental videos, and recordings of the live sessions have been made available on-line.
2022 Virtual Meeting of the Associates
The 2022 meeting was held live via Zoom on Thursday, November 3, 2022, with supplemental content provided via a virtual poster session, pre-recorded mini-talks, and select supplemental publications. The theme of the 2022 meeting was Resilience in a Time of Crises: Applying Science & Innovation to Support Families, and a recording of the live event is available for review below.
