UUSC National Youth Justice Summit July 2012

By Ted Resnikoff

This summer, a select group of 15–20 high-school youth will come together to make a commitment to social justice — and we're looking for young people ready for the challenge! Join us in Boston, Mass., for a week of learning, skill building, and focused hand-on service. In an experience grounded in Unitarian Universalist theology and practices, participants will learn the basics of privilege, identity, and economic justice, plus the skills to work for social change in joyful, meaningful, and sustainable ways. Through interactive workshops and role-playing, service learning in the community, and time for deep reflection, the conference will be an opportunity for participants to gain a better understanding of themselves and the part they can play in creating change. Youth will leave the summit with new or renewed commitment to social justice and a supportive community to walk with them while doing this work. Read all about it and apply here!
