Conference Code of Conduct and Photo Release:

All attendees, speakers, sponsors and volunteers at our conference are required to agree with the following code of conduct. Staff and volunteers will enforce this code throughout the event. We expect cooperation from all participants to help ensure a safe environment for everybody.

1.     Basic philosophy of responsible conduct: Essential to the Youth and Government program is the concern and respect for the rights of every individual.  Being responsible for your own behavior and attitude at all times is an essential element of self-government benefiting not only ourselves, but fellow delegates and the New York State YMCA Youth and Government Program. 

1.     General Rules:   Infractions of the following general rules shall result in expulsion from the YMCA Youth and Government program functions and conferences.  In addition local law enforcement agencies may be contacted and the participant/advisor/staff member turned over to them:

a.       Laws of the State, County and City are always observed.

b.       State Capitol Chamber rules restrict all beverages, food, gum, including phone limitations that we will follow.

c.       Possession or consumption of weapons, alcoholic beverages or non-prescribed drugs are not permitted

d.       Any act of vandalism, destruction of property, or misuse of a facility may be a crime and will be treated as such.

e.       Attendance and punctuality is mandatory at all work sessions

f.        Those who decide to be present when a violation occurs shall, by their own choice, be considered a participant in the violation.  In this program there are no “innocent bystanders.”

g.       This is a full tobacco free event. There will be no smoking, chewing, use of e-cigarettes etc. in the Government buildings, in the hotel or any other facility where Youth and Government activities take place. 

h.       Badges shall be worn by individuals whose name is on the badge.  BADGE SWITCHING OR SHARING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED.  Participants will wear their assigned badges at all times when they are not in their sleeping rooms.  Badges are to be worn above the waist and must be visible and worn at all times.  Badges are not to be defaced, decorated, or altered in anyway.  Only advisors can request replacement badges.

3.       Digital Expectations:  Equity is a value we strive to adhere to in the YMCA.  We understand that each student has a unique situation and differing levels of access to technology. If you have concerns about access to computer, internet, or other resources in order to participate, please do not let that be a barrier.  Communicate with your District Coordinator or the Conference Director and we will work with you. In conducting an online conference we ask the following things

A.   While you will be able to participate in any aspect of this via calling in by phone, you will be expected to present via videoconference with camera and audio on at all times possible, within reason.

B.   Mute your microphone whenever you’re not speaking, and unmute it before you speak.

C.   Review the materials sent out before the conference on how to use the software and participate fully.
