Abstract

The University of Northern Iowa's Youth Leadership Studies program was established to foster professionalism in the youth development field through the encouragement of creative and research activities. One major endeavor toward that end has been the conduct of an annual National Youth Leadership Symposium. Begun in 1990, the Symposium has served as a working conference that focuses on solving practical problems for the emerging profession. The purpose of the Symposium is to serve as an agent of change by raising questions, examining circumstances, making decisions and taking actions that realize that common ground and agreement needed to contribute to the profession. The Symposium builds on the unique traditions, missions, and services of each youth organization, while cutting across the boundaries of divisions and differences that may limit efforts. The 1993 Symposium was committed to the examination of the emerging youth development profession with the guiding theme: "Youth Development: Discovering the Profession."
