During this dynamic three-day conference, teens 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 cohort experiences, and learning from leadership mentors, teens will discover their values as leaders, hone their communication and teamwork skills, and develop empowering goals for their future. Participants will also learn about ethical decision-making, managing conflict, and community engagement through service.
