During this dynamic two-day conference, teens will come together to learn, grow, and support each other on their unique leadership journeys.
By participating in engaging hands-on activities, contributing within small group experiences, and learning from leadership mentors, teens will discover their values, hone their communication and teamwork skills, and develop empowering goals for their future. Participants will also learn about ethical decision making and community engagement through service.
