On May 20th, Montville High
School hosted Spring Regional
Training Conferences. At RTCs,
officers and general members
learned about their positions, the
district, and International, as well
as many other facets of Key Club.
Couldn’t make it to Montville?
Not to worry, there will be another
Regional Training Conference in
the fall! Remember, attendance at
one RTC is mandatory for each of-
ficer. General members are en-
couraged to attend if they are
looking to learn more about Key
Club or interested in running for a
position next year.

Advocacy
Why?
30% of teenagers have an eating disorder
and 58% have tried to change their body.
90% of kids have been bullied and in 85%
of these cases no one intervened. Bullying
includes physical, cyber and verbal attacks
and social alienation.
Over one million teens die of suicide a year;
that’s one person every 40 seconds. 20% of
teens have considered suicide while 14%
have planned a suicide. Suicide is the third
leading cause of death.
Advocacy by Eric Smuda LTG Div 21
Advocacy is speaking on behalf of those who cannot speak for themselves.
This year’s advocacy focus will focus on the areas of self-image, anti-bullying and suicide pre-
vention in order to make a difference in these areas.
How are we going to change this?
SAILSupport. Awareness. Inspire. Lead.
Together, through two advocacy seasons we
are going to help end these problems. The
first step is to support those who you see
suffering and be there for them. Secondly,
raise awareness by educating your school
and community about these problems and
statistics through assemblies and days of si-
lence. Inspire others through your actions
and the stories of those who have been bul-
lied, suffered from eating disorders or al-
most lost their life to suicide. Lead the way
and take the initiative to help save lives and
make a difference.
The Two Advocacy Seasons
Season one started in May will end at Fall
Rally. Focus on self/body image.
Season two starts at Fall Rally ends at
DCON. Focus on anti-bullying and suicide
prevention.
