AACC 2025 World Conference Proposals
The AACC (American Association of Christian Counselors) is inviting Conference Proposals for their 2025 “United” World Conference (September 23 - September 27, 2025). ISW and ABCST have a long history of coordinating and presenting in the AACC Sex Therapy track.
Cliff and Joyce Penner and Michael Sytsma (Track Leaders) and Mark Yarhouse, Debra Taylor, and Corey Gilbert (Track Coordinators) request break out session speaking proposals from the ABCST community. Choose something you care deeply about and know more about than a typical therapist. If 2 of you would enjoy presenting together on a sexuality or sex therapy topic, that would be great – especially because the speaking slots are very limited. Please don’t be intimidated - grab a colleague, choose a topic, follow the guidelines, pray, and submit a quality proposal.
Dr. Mike offers some guidelines/resources for writing a proposal:
The track will be so much better if we all get involved!
