2024 Youth Symposium:
The Teen Summit Podcast
For the 28th Annual Youth Symposium on March 9, 2024, we held a Teen Summit Podcast at Alliance Ouchi-O’Donovan 6-12 Complex. With over 35 local teenagers actively engaged in podcast topics like friendship and dating, mental health and becoming an adult, we had a day full of nuggets of wisdom, inspiration and excitement. We also had the privilege of giving over $500 in gift cards and other raffle prizes throughout the day. Through engaging workshops, thought-provoking discussions, and impactful presentations, the Youth Symposium empowers participants to unleash their full potential and make a positive impact in their communities. We cultivate the next generation of trailblazers, change-makers, and advocates for social justice.
