Training andDevelopmentSystems, Inc.Oakland - Seattle - Springfield, IL. - Agana, GuamNovember 8,1982')QM'JV19 Thoma s PaukenNati onal Director of Action806 Connecticut Avenue NorthwestWas hington, D, C. 20525Af t er having had some time to reflect on the Colorado Conference on Drug Free Youth, I wouldlike to share some my reactions with you.It has truly been a privilege to be a member of the planningcommittee for this conference. I have rarely seen a groupof people, representing diverse constituencies, work ascooperatively as this planning committee has worked. Almostwithout exception, committee members gave their time andenergy freely to make the conference a success. The resultsof this dedication were obvious in that the conference wasextremely well attended, the presentations were consistentlyexcellent, and the response from conference participants hasbeen enthusiastic. Working on the planning committee has beengratifying both in the sense that I helped provide a badlyneeded service to people from all over Colorado and that I hadthe opportunity to get to know many creative, dedicated, andhighly competent people,Brian Vogt did an outstanding job organizing this comference,The spirit of cooperation among members of the planning committeeand conference participants was a direct result of the toneBrian set and his skill in working with people. Brian wasnot agraid to take charge when it was necessary nor was heuncomfortable allowing others to take charge of projectsthey were interested in. Consequently, he generated a sense ofcommi ttment and ownership among planning committee memberswhich ultimately extended to participants as well. I firmlybelieve Brian did everything he possibly could and more, tomake this conference successful.I am very much aware that this conference was not perfect.I have heard criticism that minority groups were neithersuffi ciently represented on the planning committee norsufficiently recruited to attend the conference. My ownobservation is that minority groups, particularly NativeAmericans, were in fact under represented at the conference,To go a step further and state that minorities were excluded3333 Quebec Street, Suite 600Denver, CO 80207303/355-3775

-. .and that the conference was planned with little sensitivityto minority groups in general, is both inaccurate and unfairnot only to Brian but also to the rest of the planning committee.·At least six people representing either the black or hispaniccommunity are listed as members of the planning committee.Not all of those people were active in planning the conferenceby their own choice. Both the black community and the hispaniccommunity were represented by principal speakers at the conference. The fact that the conference was attended by Blacks,Hispanics, and Native Americans indicates that minoritieswere either recruited by someone or that the general effortsin publicizing the conference were at least partially effectivein recruiting these groups.Certainly, it would be to everyone's benefit for futureconferences to be well attended by all racial and ethnicminority groups in Colorado. Having learned by experienceat this conference, future planning committees will bebetter prepared to work towards that end than we were forthis initial conference.In general, I think the c.o nference was an overwhelming success.We were successful in increasing the level of awareness ofdrug and alcohol issues for specialized segments of thecommunity. We were suc essful in increasing statewide networking among both professional and parent groups. We weresuccessful in promoting adolescent initiated drugfree parties. Finally, we were successful in generatingmomentum for establishing new norms in regard to the useof drugs and alcohol particularly by adolescents.I am very proud to have been a part of this conference.I hope we have begun a tradition of yearly conferences,·sponsored by a coalition of diverse groups, and characterizedby cooperation and caring for the people in our communities.Sincerely,o/ ft/S' Linda Hall MSWccsv. c.LeagueCarlton TurnerNaomi BradfordBrian VogtMary Baca
