About

Hosted by The California Endowment Center for Healthy Communities in Oakland, CA, this event explored how young people are engaging in and leading efforts to improve the social, economic, and environmental factors that influence the health and equity of communities and the nation. Presentations and discussion highlighted case examples from select domains in which young people engage (e.g., education, climate justice, community safety); discussed the types of civic infrastructure and resources that support youth participation and leadership of change efforts; and explored the available evidence on how young people (and society at large) benefit from being involved in this kind of work.
