open to the public

The Human Development and Family Science Gertrude Weigum Hinsz Lecture
Series at North Dakota State University is bringing Dr. Stephen Russell to
Fargo-Moorhead to share his life work, stories and resources for local
educators, students, families and anyone that works with youth. Dr.
Russell has dedicated the last 15 years of his research to looking at
issues facing sexual minority youth – youth who are LGBT. He has looked at
the health risks for sexual minority adolescents, including whether an
adolescent’s home life, school and/or faith community lead to risk or
protect against it. Currently, Dr. Russell is conducting research that
focuses on how families, schools and other support systems can aid in the
healthy development of LGBT young people. His research has been integral
in helping advocacy organizations, school districts and state education
departments develop policy that is supportive of a learning environment
that is inclusive and safe for LGBTQ youth.

Reception to follow in the Prairie Rose Room with Dr. Russell.

Every 10 years, the U.S. Constitution calls for a census count of all persons living in the United States.

Based on census numbers, nearly $400 billion of federal resources are allocated annually to states, communities, and community-based organizations.

Our communities have a lot to gain or lose in the 2010 census. We need to make sure everyone is counted!

At this conference, learn about the key messages and outreach strategies organizations across the country are using to encourage census participation among the hardest-to-count communities.

Learn about special initiatives happening in Fargo-Moorhead and how to become involved in our national effort.
