We’re confirming our high school participants at the Team HBV Conference. We are thrilled that so many of our young high school students from the Jade Ribbon Youth Council and the Team HBV high school chapters are able to join us.
On Tuesday, November 10th, the Jade Ribbon Youth Council will meet with the delegates from China to present on their Hepatitis B Awareness Week declaration and activities that surround API Heritage month and World Hepatitis Day.
On Thursday, November 12th, the high school students from the city of Cupertino have been invited to participate in the tour and dinner reception, hosted by the Ping and Amy Chao Family Foundation, at Cupertino City Hall with the delegates from China.
On Saturday, November 15th, the high school chapter presidents and JRYC are all invited to participate in the Team HBV Conference. We hope that their experiences at the conference will help motivate and empower them to utilize the skills and strategies employed by the college chapters. Although the high school students will not be making official presentations at the conference, they will be encouraged to participate in the flip videos and social media time.
Diana, our new Outreach Coordinator, is taking the lead on working with our high school students. One of our future plans is to develop a more cohesive Team HBV high school chapter structure similar to our current college chapter structure.
