Black Male Youth Summit: Monday, April 29th & Wednesday, May 1, 2024, at Madison College, Madison, WI

Black Male Youth Summit

Next Level Workshop & Keynote Speaker Series is hosting its 4th Annual Youth Summit. The NLWKSS Youth Summit is open to male students and will be coordinating with Madison and other local school districts. The event will be held Monday, April 29, 2024 (middle school students) & Wednesday, May 1, 2024 (high school students) at Madison College (Truax). The Black Male Youth Summit is designed to provide information and resources to Black males through workshops (i.e. financial literacy, mental health, social media, conflict resolution, etc.) and discussions that address issues that negatively affect African American males. The event offers a foundation in which these students are assisted in gaining academic, leadership and life skills. Developing a strong connection with Black male youth is a great start to reducing the barriers that impacts their individual growth and success. NLWKSS is excited about its role as a conduit to building bridges, creating opportunities for learning, and increasing self-esteem in marginalized students. NLWKSS endeavors to integrate the aspirations of these students with the inspiration that is provided by role models and organizations that exemplify excellence.
