The #RealTalkTobacco #RISE Youth Summit is a convening of 150 youth leaders from around the Philadelphia and Southeastern PA area who are currently engaged in or are passionate about public health advocacy work including tobacco control and prevention. The annual youth summit features special guest speakers conducting workshops on advanced advocacy content including: Social Media, Policy, Storytelling, Tobacco and Advocacy 101(Youth Empowerment).
In today's Philadelphia, youth face a common crisis: the fight for a healthy and safe future. Our Advocacy Institute youth understand that their best chance to fight against health disparities and social injustices is to organize, mobilize, and advocate in solidarity. This summit is an opportunity for our AI Ambassadors and Summit guest speakers to equip rising youth leaders with the tools they need to stand together in the fight against Big Tobacco and any other industry or social system that prevents their communities from achieving health equity.
