Why attend?

Continuing the Legacy: The inaugural 2024 Joint Meeting brought together 445 delegates from 6 countries, 31 Tribal nations, and 38 U.S. states in what was the first national gathering on youth prevention, treatment, and recovery in over a decade. Building on the foundation of the Joint Meeting on Adolescent Treatment Effectiveness (JMATE), we are addressing youth substance use with renewed vigor and commitment. At the 2025 conference, we are dedicated to preserving and enhancing the legacy of the significant contributions that have shaped this field.
National and Tribal Collaboration: We are thrilled to continue partnering with key federal partners such as the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and Bureau of Indian Affairs, Office of Justice Services (BIA/OJS), who recognize the timeliness of our efforts to address youth substance use and health outcomes, especially among Native communities.
PWRRI Forum Integration: The 2025 conference will feature the fully integrated Pathways to Wellness Recidivism Reduction Initiative Forum, focusing on culturally responsive approaches to reducing recidivism in Native communities, with promising practice models that reflect deep cultural and clinical synergies.
Diverse and Impactful Sessions: The 2025 JMYPTR will facilitate meaningful exchanges among researchers, practitioners, and policymakers. Attendees can look forward to a well-rounded, research-driven approach to youth prevention, treatment, and recovery.

FAQs

Why have the registration costs increased from last year’s (2024) conference?

For the 2024 Joint Meeting on Youth Prevention, Treatment, and Recovery, we were fortunate to receive a generous gift that enabled us to subsidize registration costs for all attendees. However, without similar support this year, we are unfortunately unable to keep last year’s rates for the upcoming event.

Are any meals included in this registration?

Yes, the cost of registration includes breakfast, lunch, and coffee/snacks on Tuesday and Wednesday, and breakfast on Thursday. Breakfast and lunch will be buffet style and prepared on site by the Four Seasons culinary team.

Are there registration scholarships available?

Yes! Students and professionals may apply for an award to cover the cost of registration. More information on this to follow, please check back here for updates.

Is the Four Seasons accessible for those with mobility concerns?

The Four Seasons Hotel Baltimore is very accessible from the garage up to the guest rooms, including meeting space. If you need an accessible room for your hotel stay, please let the reservations team know.

How can I book my hotel room at the conference rate?

Attendees can reserve their room using the JMYPTR room block promo code provided in the registration confirmation email. Please ensure you use this code when booking your room, as attempting to book without it will show no rooms are available.

Currently, rooms are still available within the room block, so be sure to book early to secure your stay early.
