ABOVE THE INFLUENCE-KENT COUNTY ‘CREATE YOUR DREAMS’ YOUTH SUMMIT
May 9 @ 8:00 am - 2:00 pm
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE 2025 ‘CREATE YOUR DREAMS’ YOUTH SUMMIT
The Above the Influence-Kent County Youth Coalition Brand Ambassadors selected CREATE YOUR DREAMS as the theme for the 2025 KCPC Above the Influence-Kent County Youth Summit. Youth Summit has historically been a space carved out for middle and high school students to flock for encouragement, acceptance, and inspiration to live a life Above the Influence. With the goal to drive positive change in our community, while transforming health and wellness trends and overcoming pop culture messages that suggest that alcohol, tobacco and other drugs are not harmful. ‘CREATE YOUR DREAMS’ makes space for teens to focus on the POSITIVES in life, identify their purpose, learn how to avoid potential pitfalls like drugs and alcohol and position themselves to accelerate towards their future. The environment will offer support and inspiration to help teens move to the next level of becoming the best version of themselves..
