About the Youth Summit

Our first Youth Summit was in April 2024. The Youth Summit program is for youth 13-18 years old. The program focuses on mental health, personal development, character building, leadership, personal values, healthy relationships, self-worth, and purpose. The program consists of several marquee events every year.

Upcoming Youth Summit Events

  • Several events are held throughout the year to promote positive experiences for area teenagers including worship nights, recreational events, and more.

  • Monetary and sponsorship donations are always needed for the Youth Summit program. Email Lisa at lisa@brightsideprojectohio.org.
