A Youth Leadership Summit is planned to take place on Saturday, April 21, from 9 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. in Hickory. The event will invite high school students to learn about the opioid problem and discuss how they can help confront the issue at home. The summit will focus on raising awareness and building advocacy skills. The interactive and hands on event will also introduce ideas and tool kits for community action and charge the participants with developing a community project that confronts the opioid epidemic. Leading to Change, a nationally awarded training agency will help to facilitate the event.

Paid lodging options may be provided for the night of April 20th (Friday) on a limited basis. All hotel reservations must be made through the TTA Center.
