"Youth Conferences
District level youth conferences, commonly called "Cons (or rallies in the Southwest District)", are gatherings of youth within a district and are organized by that district's Youth Council/Committee. Youth from local youth groups and youth groups from across the district (and sometimes not associated with a youth group) attend these conferences. Conferences are different in every UU district; however, in general, "cons" provide a safe environment for youth to express themselves and to learn and grow spiritually, socially, and emotionally. "Cons" serve many purposes (social action, elections (for the district youth council), leadership development, spirituality development, or social bonding). Conferences generally consist of nighttime worships, workshops (social action, worship planning, artistic), and a talent show/coffee house (music, poems, performances). The structure of conferences varies by region, but they generally last from Friday night to Sunday morning of a weekend, and are, to a certain degree, youth-planned and youth-led. Youth are supported by adult Advisors."
