The lyrics may call the children our future, but teens are already experiencing the challenges of today and stepping up with creative solutions.
The Mobilizing Youth Summit (MYSummit) is an annual convening with young people from across the Southern United States that strengthens youth engagement in policy, leadership, advocacy, and organizing. Focusing on civic innovation, experiential learning, and public service, THAR will host 1-day micro-MYSummits in 3 sites across Arkansas to equip Arkansas youth, aged 15-19, to harness their power to advocate for policies and issues that promote change in their communities.
