Protection Seminars

The Utah County Academy of Sciences (UCAS) invites you to attend a youth protection seminar (House Bill 298). The seminars are specifically for parents and community members who work with students. Topics for the evening will cover substance abuse, bullying, mental health (including suicide prevention), and Internet safety. UCAS will hold one of these seminars every year. Please see the UCAS calendar for exact dates and times.

At UCAS we feel these seminars are highly important. We strongly encourage you to attend. If you have questions or concerns please contact your UCAS counselor. We are happy to meet with you to help resolve any issues and help protect your student(s) in any way we can.
