Join us for the 12th annual teen summit, and learn how to promote volunteerism, develop leadership skills, and increase your awareness of social trends at local, state and national levels.

The largest youth conference of its kind in Southern California, the 2008 summit will feature keynote speaker Wing Lam, Co-Founder of Wahoo's Fish Taco, who has made an impact on his community through service in remarkable ways.  Students will choose from more than 20 workshops geared toward inspiring them to "take the lead" in making change, taking social action, and positively influencing the world around them. 

Boxed lunches will be provided for all attendees, courtesy of Corner Bakery Cafe.
