JOIN US AT AMERICA’S FIRST YOUTH-LED
NATIONAL YOUTH LEADERSHIP SUMMIT
July 26-30, 2022 in Mpls-St. Paul
ARE YOU A YOUNG CHANGEMAKER?
Are you working to help youth take charge and lead our communities and country? Now is our time. You are invited to join us for a one-of-a-kind leadership and movement-building experience at the National Youth Leadership Summit this July in Minneapolis-St. Paul.
JOIN THE MOVEMENT
The National Youth Leadership Summit is hosted by Bridgemakers, an initiative led by under-resourced youth to bridge America’s largest gaps. We believe that every decision about youth should be made with youth. In 2020-21, Bridgemakers youth led a statewide campaign that resulted in 20,000 young workers getting $30 million in direct economic relief and changing a discriminatory state law with bipartisan support. Since then, we’ve been working to help youth redesign schools, career training and juvenile justice prevention. Learn more here and here
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
Everybody is invited to participate virtually. We invite you to apply to participate in-person in Minneapolis-St. Paul July 26-30. 30 applicants will be selected for in-person participation. All expenses will be covered. We are seeking young (ages 18-23) leaders already working to solve big public problems–especially the problems that most directly affect us as youth–by elevating youth voice and leadership. We especially encourage under-resourced young leaders to apply.
PLEASE APPLY BY 11:59 PM FRIDAY, JULY 1ST.
Applicants selected for in-person participation will be notified by July 5th. Application here. For more information, please contact Natasha Loya at natasha@bridgemakersmn.org.
