Engaging the youth one step at a time: NAACP Youth Council Summit

Event Name: Trenton NAACP Youth Council Youth Empowerment Summit
Event Location: 320 Hollowbrook Drive, Ewing, New Jersey

For all those folks out there that believe that the youth only cares about YouTube and IPad's, the NAACP has got news for you. This weekend, the Trenton NAACP Youth Council, will be hosting a Youth Empowerment Summit. The purpose of the event is to educate, empower, and enlighten individual young people between the ages of 8-19. Nowadays, with so many of the youth feeling powerless and without direction, this sort of event becomes particularly relevant as it gives them an outlet to not only be motivated, but also challenged. For those that don't already know, this event is open to the public.

People ages 8-19 get in free, while tickets cost $15 for individuals 19 years of age and older. There will be guest speakers and vendors from the Anchor House, the S.E.E.D mentoring program, and One Simple Wish (among many others) offering life changing workshops. The event will be held at 320 Hollowbrook Drive, Ewing, NJ from 10 am to 3 pm. Lunch will be served. Please come out and support the youth today in Ewing Township.
