About this Event

Urban Youth Workers Institute and The Detroit Leadership Foundation is gearing up to throw the Truth & Trauma Conference—a powerful, one-day experience created just for urban youth workers. This isn’t your typical conference. We're talking real talk, real tools, and real support to help you show up strong for the young people you serve. Urban youth are facing big challenges, and we want to make sure the people on the front lines—like you—are equipped to meet them with heart, hope, and healing. Let’s bridge the gap together and spark real change in our communities.
