Welcome

Thank you for visiting the conference proposal site of the New York Association of School Psychologists. We hope that you will find everything you need here to submit a proposal to our conference committee. Unfortunately, because we receive many proposals and have limited space at our conferences, we cannot accept every submission.

Please follow the guidelines and suggestions offered here to improve your chances for acceptance. Remember, we are trying to judge your proposal based on what you send to us - so try and make sure that your submission reflects the strongest attributes of your proposal.

Conference 2012 will be held in Niagara Falls, October 25-27, 2012. The conference theme is “Families and Schools: Together We Can Do Great Things!” You are invited to submit papers or posters relevant to our theme of school and family collaboration. Conference topics include Mental Health, Bullying Research and Prevention, Autism, ADHD, Multicultural and Diversity Issues, Concussions and Head Injury. There will also be a Student Strand.

Proposed submissions must be received by April 1, 2012

As we are a "green" organization, we will only be accepting online submissions. You do not need any technical expertise to submit your proposal online. The online submission form is fairly simple and it allows you to attach a file of your proposal summary, which you likely created on your computer anyway.

Bring your spouse and make it a mini-vacation. There’s lots to see: the Falls, Old Fort Niagara, which played a prominent role in the War of 1812, and lots of good theater and sports nearby. The best view of the Horseshoe Falls (the ones you see on all of the postcards) is from the Canadian side, so bring your passports and walk across the foot bridge.


Good luck!
