The NaBITA Conference Committee is soliciting program proposals for its 11th Annual Conference, to be held November 11-13, 2019 in Bonita Springs, FL.

The Call for Programs closes on August 2, 2019.

Notifications of acceptance/rejection will go out electronically by August 14, 2019

We are seeking proposals for two types of sessions: Concurrent Presentations, and Session Snapshots. Please see below for session information:

Session Snapshots
  • Session snapshots will allow presenters the opportunity to give a brief, 10 minute overview of an innovative program or practice at their institution.
  • The entire session snapshot block is 90 minutes long and the accepted session snapshot presenters will rotate, each presenting for 10 minutes.
  • The session snapshots are designed to highlight and innovative program or practice and provide participants with key takeaways which they can apply to their own campuses.
  • We are seeking session snapshots which describe an innovate program or practice related to BIT/Care Teams, case management, threat assessment, mental health, or interventions and support.
  • If your program is selected, the presentation abstract provided in the application will be included on the conference site and the printed conference program. Please make sure the abstract clearly conveys the objective, theme and style of the presentation.
 
PLEASE NOTE:
  • Co‐presented sessions are encouraged.
  • You are encouraged to submit multiple proposals and/or proposals for both a concurrent session and session snapshot.
  • All concurrent session and session snapshot presenters must register and pay for the conference. There are no waived or reduced registration fees for presenters.
  • You do not need to be a NaBITA member to attend, or to present (but we hope you will join!).
  • All presenters selected must be physically present for their sessions (telepresence not permitted).
  • Please note that, in order to provide a variety of topics during each session, NaBITA reserves the right to assign date and time of each presentation session. Changes to the schedule cannot be accommodated.
  • If accepted, presentation materials will be due on or before September 28, 2019.
Please remember that the Conference Committee has only your submission on which to evaluate your proposal. 

• Explain why your proposal is an important contribution to the field.
• Have a point and articulate it clearly.
• Know and reference research, guidance, best practice, cases, etc.
• Tailor your proposal per the guidelines, time limit, and audience.
• Include a descriptive title.
