PAPRS is pleased to once again offer the

R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

anti-stigma poster contest in virtual format during

The 2022 PAPRS Virtual Conference:

 

Facing Challenges: Resiliency and Renewal

 

The RESPECT poster contest is an individual contest, not a group contest. Group submissions will not be accepted.

The age groups are:

Youth/Young Adult (through age 26)

Adult (age 27 and older).

 

Posters must be no more than 11” X 14” in size (half a sheet of poster board), and can be on any type of paper, poster board, foam board, etc. Artists may also use any other media or art supplies they choose (markers, colored pencils, paint, crayons, pens, pencils, charcoal, stickers, paper cut outs, photography, etc.). Artwork must be original and shall not use copyright protected material. If photos of people are used, please include a release signed by the person or persons in the photos which allows you to use the photo on your poster, and allows PAPRS to use the poster on websites and in other public arenas. Be creative and remember the theme is:

 

Facing Challenges: Resiliency and Renewal

 

Make your poster and take a photo of it. Email the photo to paprseducation@gmail.com no later than Friday April 8, 2022.

Please submit only one poster per email. Be sure the email message includes your age group, your name, full mailing address, phone number, and an email address where we can contact winners prior to the closing ceremony. If you desire to keep your address and phone number private, you always have the option to list the Psych Rehab Provider and use the program name, address, phone number and email address for a specific PRS staff member.
