Youth and Young Adult Conferences

Youth and Young Adult Conferences are groups of people who get together on a regular basis to meet and discuss ways to address particular needs in their community and then take action to meet those particular needs. Like traditional Conferences, they focus on the three Essential Elements of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul—spirituality, friendship and service—and empower young people of Cincinnati to be part of the mission and work of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.

As a member of a Conference, members have an amazing opportunity to:

Meet like-minded students wanting to make a difference in our community
Participate in fun and eye-opening service activities
Serve your local neighbors in need
Develop leadership skills that prepare you for life after high school
Be a part of an international organization
