Who is the Youth & Young Adult Empowerment
Summit and Career Fair for?
This Summit is for youth and young adults who desire change and want to level up and get a jumpstart on their careers. It will serve youth and young adults, ages 13-25. Parents are welcome to attend with their youth and young adults. Adults, please bring at least ONE youth or young adult with you if you plan to attend. Please do not attend alone.
Why should youth and young adults attend the Summit?
Youth and young adults will be taught and given tips, tools, and strategies on various topics that will equip them with the tools to set them up for future success. They will also have opportunities to learn how to network and speak one-on-one with mentors, speakers, Chief Executive Officers (CEOs), industry leaders, experts, coaches, etc. If they are stuck in life, they won’t leave the same way.
