Youth Leadership for Change Community Impact Showcase x Forum

Join us for an inspiring celebration of youth leadership, creativity, and community impact at the Youth Leadership for Change Community Impact Forum and Showcase Event!

This milestone event brings together youth leaders, City representatives, community partners, funders, and the public to highlight the incredible work led by young people across the city. The showcase marks a key moment in the YLC journey , a chance to recognize the power of youth-driven change and the collective impact of nearly 60+ funded fully youth-led projects.

Attendees will experience a dynamic walking exhibition featuring each project, offering the opportunity to learn directly from youth leaders about their ideas, initiatives, and impact. The event will also include a short panel and remarks from City representatives, as well as an employment component designed to connect youth with career pathways, opportunities, and resources.

A light breakfast and lunch will be provided.

Whether you’re a youth leader, community partner, or supporter of youth-led change, this event is an opportunity to connect, celebrate, and be inspired by the next generation of leaders shaping our city.
