The T2T Mission is for High School students to teach and demonstrate personal leadership to younger students through activities; and for all of the participants to feel more empowered to be leaders in their own life and in the community.
The Summits are developed and facilitated by our Teen Leaders. Each of the Leaders provides an authentic and relatable voice for middle school students to hear. The Teen Leaders introduce the middle school students to the ideas through fun and interactive activities in the following areas of growth.
1. Awareness of their own values
2. Understanding/Respecting others
3. Making good decisions in difficult and
challenging situations
This unique Summit is interactive and directly challenges the youth to explore their own values and decision-making.
