International, Multigenerational Gathering to happen in June 2012.
A new generation of leaders is emerging worldwide among young adults who lived in care as children. Representatives from this new movement will gather on June 26-29 near Washington, DC, US to set an agenda for change and to start a conversation with senior officials worldwide on the consequences and impact of transition for youth in care.
The International Summit is a youth/adult partnership. It is being directed by young activists who have personally experienced being in care, with staff support from sponsoring organizations.
Message from Founding Leaders
Our vision is a world in which youth and adults realize the potential of youth-adult partnerships through education, connection, and inspiration, as a way of properly managing successful transition and fostering effective sustainable change.
