Submissions must include a structured abstract (300 word limit), 2 learning objectives, and 3 key questions that will guide discussion of your project. Please include information about how your work connects to the conference theme.
Instructions for Preparing Abstracts
Abstracts should include the following subsections: (1) Background, (2) Aims/Objectives/Issues of Focus, (3) Methods/Proposition, (4) Results/Potential Outcomes, and (5) Discussion/Implications.
Instructions for Preparing Learning Objectives
Please make sure you use learning objectives, not teaching objectives. Teaching objectives state what you are trying to teach. Learning objectives are what you expect the attendee to know or be able to do after attending your presentation. For example "At the conclusion of this presentation, learners will be able to: Describe 3 challenges in mental health and mental healthcare that can be addressed through the use of community navigators and peer-delivered models."
