RISE is hosting its inaugural youth summit, ‘The Future is Ours’

The two-day summit invites refugee youth between ninth and 12th grades to develop the leadership, employment and education-related skills that they need to emerge confident and successful. The Future is Ours will build on our long tradition of supporting youth empowerment and self-sufficiency in the Syracuse community.

The Future is Ours Youth Summit will take place  Friday and Saturday, Aug. 10 and 11, 2018, from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., at Onondaga Community College, 4585 West Seneca Tnpk., Syracuse.

The summit will offer:

  • Interactive breakout sessions and group activities led by community leaders
  • Outdoor activities and outreach opportunities
  • Workshops for parents
  • Inspirational presentations and panels from “success stories” from Syracuse’s refugee community
