Answering the why…

The South Florida Youth Summit was created to bring youth and nonprofit organizations of South Florida together.

Together, we have identified 5 focus areas within the youth community that are included in a year-long program of teaching and mentoring. No other program in South Florida has an agenda this comprehensive to address issues and provide solutions for our youth. National data shows that students who are mentored (group and individual) have higher graduation rates, lower incidences of violence, and perform better overall in school.

6 Focus Areas

STEM
Education

(Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics)
We create an interactive environment where students learn the valuable concepts of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.

LEADership
Development

Servant Leadership principles guide leadership development activities where students are encouraged to give priority to the needs of those they serve while preparing the way for developing student leaders to follow.

Social Innovation
& Entrepreneurship

Students learn skills and techniques to solve problems while creating socially responsible companies and organizations that become engines of change in their communities.

Financial
Literacy

Basic financial principles, including the steps to entrepreneurship, provide a solid financial foundation for participating students.

Childhood
Obesity

Students are engaged in activities and learning that promote proper nutrition, exercise, and the benefits of being healthy and fit.

Youth Violence
Prevention

Principles of law, respect, conflict resolution, and self-esteem are the tenets used to discourage students from using violence to resolve differences.

“Today’s youth… need to read the literature, watch films… to develop strong discipline and to be committed to the cause.”
