Teen workshops

Join us for our annual week of summer workshops for high schoolers that spotlight local and global issues and offer inspiring ways to take action and change the world.

Choose your own adventure: You can pick the topic that most excites you and make it a one-day experience, or you can take as many workshops as you like! Workshops are free and open to rising 9th through 12th grade students.  Space is limited.
