The annual youth empowerment summit took place this past Saturday at the Southport United Methodist Church! We received an amazing turnout and had many great speakers talk to our youth about education, career paths, mental health, college and more. Every year we hope to provide a safe space for our youth to come and not only learn about different topics, but to also ask important questions about issues they might be facing.
Diamonds of Wisdom for Adults Dealing with Youth
- Create a safe space for them to want to talk to you.
- Provide a listening ear even if it's outside of the norm for you.
- Give them a chance to explore their talents.
- Talk about the difficult topics with them (drugs, school violence, bullying, alcohol use)
