This year's summit theme is "Living Your Best Queer Life" and will include speakers and workshops on topics such as LGBTQ+ health and wellbeing, navigating school and social climates, advocating for yourself, as well as best practices in working with LGBTQ+ youth. This year, youth, parents, and providers are invited to attend and choose breakout sessions that best fits their interests and needs.
Saturday Conference
Saturday will be an all day conference at USC Upstate full of learning, networking, workshops, and resources! Lunch and snacks will be provided. The conference will take place at the University Readiness Center on North Campus Boulevard. Stay tuned for a detailed schedule of workshops!
Ticket Information
We do not want financial constraints to create unnecessary barriers for youth and community members to attend. We are offering "pay what you can" options and encourage youth to choose an amount appropriate to their financial situation, even if that amount is $0. Please contact us with any questions you may have regarding your financial circumstances. Ultimately, we just want you to be able to attend the Youth Summit.
