As part of the ITP Program on Spin and Magnetism in Young Neutron Stars there will be a conference during the week of October 2, 2000. The recent discoveries of highly magnetized neutron stars and new physical mechanisms that might set the initial neutron star rotation rate have given us exciting new insights into neutron star properties and force us to reconsider much of the interior physics of these extreme stellar remnants. This conference will bring together researchers working on all aspects of neutron star properties set during their birth and prevalent during their youth. The mornings will be in the usual conference format, with a program of invited talks, and the afternoons will be organized into discussion sections, including short contributions. A block of rooms has been reserved at The Best Western South Coast Inn for the of our conference participants.
