Joe Schatz (Plymouth) and Stephanie Rushie (Horsham) Co-Directors
2022-2023 marked the
45th ANNIVERSARY
of these youth conferences!
The Abington Quarter Junior Friends Conference (JFC) and Middle School Friends Conference (MSFC) provide a supportive and spiritual environment for young people 1st through 8th grades who are members or attenders of one of the Abington Quarter Monthly Meetings. Young Friends from other Quarters are also invited to register as space permits. Friends in 9th grade are welcome to apply for the Faith & Leadership Program. High school and college-aged Friends may apply to be counselors. Parents should email AQYouthPrograms@gmail.com for registration information.
The Youth Programs Oversight Committee (YPOC) was established in 1976 to nurture these conferences and other youth programs in Abington Quarter. This committee has evolved and now, as the Youth Programs Support Committee (YPSC), works with the adult members of the Monthly Meetings to create new innovative programs that endeavor to fully engage the youth of the Quarter.
