This year, Teen Empowerment will hold its first Somerville Youth Peace Conference. The Conference will feature a sophisticated presentation that addresses youth issues through the powerfully engaging vehicles of theater, music, dance, spoken word, rap, and public speaking. Teen Empowerment youth develop these presentations to best communicate their messages of hope, non-violence, and the need for responsible behavior to support positive changes in their communities and schools. Participants will share their thoughts on these topics in interactive small group sessions designed to engage youth in dialogue, resolve conflicts, build tolerance, and help teens to think deeply about the root causes of the issues they face. The day will also provide information about educational and social service programs and opportunities for youth to take positive action to help end youth violence in Somerville.
Participants
Through a collaboration with more than a dozen community groups, over 50 youth will spend 8 weeks planning the event, which will attract about 600 Somerville youth and adults. Most participants are between 13-20 years of age. In addition, about 50 adults, including parents, youth workers, teachers, police officers, TE funders and board members, and conference volunteers will also attend. The Conference is open to the public and youth and adults of all ages are welcome to attend. We hope to also get about 20 corporate and individual volunteers who will help make the Peace Conference a success.
