PROGRAMS & PROJECTS.
The two-day youth summit is for 100 student leaders in high school in Fort Wayne, Indiana. We are focused on the development of leadership skills, identifying their own personal brand, collaborating with community mentors and building a project to better their school or community.
Upon the completion of the program, student leaders begin a year-long mentorship program and work on their Young Visionaries projects.
