As the Model United Nations conference begins, it is important to keep in mind the YMCA’s Y core values: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. These values were put into place to ensure a positive experience for all participants in YMCA sanctioned events. While it is important to enjoy the conference experience, fun should not come at the expense of others. In order to ensure a positive experience for all participants, make sure you respect the rights and dignity of those around you.
