The Youth Conference has for the last 18 years been bringing together high school and middle-school students and promoting strategies that will assist in developing their future social framework. 
 
The City Council and Human Relations Commission theorize that these youth are our future and that our future depends on how efficient and effective they are trained and educated. It was also felt that the Youth Conference would be an important vehicle by which to teach the city’s vision and mission statement.
 
If you would like to be a participant in planning or attending the Youth Conference, please call 310-847-3570.
