"As a result of meeting with
professional people in education
and childrens' services as well as the
opportunity to visit historical
Washington D.C. has given me a
sense of personal growth",
expressed Mrs. Juanita Brown in
her analysis of a recent trip to the
Children's Youth Conference.
The conference consisted of
4,000 youth and adults with a
delegation of 25 people from
Oklahoma. Mrs. Brown, was the
only delegate from Southeastern
Oklahoma.
The delegates participated in
four days of group work in nine
areas consisting of education, youth
and law, employment, church and
spiritual needs, leaisure time, social
behavior, family relations and
health and public welfare.
Mrs. Brown was in group five
entitled "Education in the 21st
century." Her group suggested an
establishment of a Department of
Education with a cabinet or
presidential status.
The number one issue voted on
by the delegates and which was
considered most important was
comprehensive family oriented
children’s programs, health services,
and day care centers, since the
convention was limited to children
from 113 years of age
