At the summit, youth will have the opportunity to share ideas, learn about their legal rights, learn about the larger transgender community, participate in workshops and fun activities.
Activities include: Dance, Gender Identity Groups, Exploring Your Voice: A Writing Workshop, Creating Art, Performance and Drag Exploration, Organizing in schools & communities, Health and Legal Information.
