Get Registered for the Conference Today!

Please read the following information carefully, as it will expedite your check-in at the conference. Failure to provide the information requested of each attendee will result in denial of entry into the Governor’s Conference on LGBTQ Youth with no refund.

1. Every attendee regardless of type (student, parent, community member, exhibitor, etc.) MUST provide their full legal name. This is for the safety of all attendees, exhibitors, speakers, and Iowa Safe Schools staff. There is a section when purchasing registrations for “Chosen Name/Nickname”, where attendees can enter the name that affirms their identity. Iowa Safe Schools understands the importance of respecting the name of each and every attendee, and we celebrate the identities of every student! Legal names are required to expedite check-in and keep all attendees safe. Lists of attendees and their legal name will not be shared with anyone aside from staff and volunteers. There will be nametags and markers available at each table in the main ballroom for attendees to write the name they wish to be called throughout the conference. 
2. If you are a school registering a group of students, every student must give their legal name prior to registration cutoff at 12:00PM on April 26th, 2023. Failure to do so will result in denial of entry into the conference with no refund. 
3. All attendees must pass through metal detection after checking in, and bags of any kind will be searched prior to entry. This is for the safety of every attendee and staff member. 
4. Registration will be cut off at 12:00PM on April 26th, 2023. This will help Iowa Safe Schools ensure that all attendees have information on conference check-in, parking, etc. Registration will sell out, so priority is given to students, school staff and parents of LGBTQ youth. First access to keynote sessions will be given by priority to students. If any changes in your registration are needed you will be notified before the Conference. Thank you for understanding.
5. All registrations are final, and no refunds will be given. All registrations are reviewed and can be declined for any reason at the sole discretion of Iowa Safe Schools. The safety of all attendees, exhibitors, speakers, and staff are a top priority, and Iowa Safe Schools reserves the right to deny entry into the conference for any reason.
