Let’s Get Loud For Our Annual Mental Health Youth Summit
Empowering Youth Voices is our annual, one-day summit designed to uplift, inspire, and center the voices of high school students across Massachusetts. Held at Danversport, this free event brings young people together for a meaningful day of connection, conversation, and leadership focused on mental health, advocacy, and youth empowerment.
On Friday, May 8, 2026, from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM, students will join peers from schools across the state to learn from one another, share their experiences, and discover the power of their voices in shaping healthier, more compassionate communities. Schools typically attend with groups of approximately 10 students and 2 chaperones, and there is no cost to participate.
Last year, Empowering Youth Voices welcomed nearly 300 students and chaperones from over 20 schools, building an unforgettable space filled with energy, courage, and hope. The young people who showed up reminded us that they are not just the future, they are the movement happening right now.
Registration: Schools can reserve their spot by emailing [email protected].
We can’t wait to gather once again and continue amplifying youth voices together.
Each year, Empowering Youth Voices grows into a powerful space where young people feel seen, heard, and supported. Our past two summits brought together hundreds of students and educators from schools across Massachusetts, creating rooms filled with honest conversations, leadership, and hope.
From student-led discussions to moments of connection and reflection, these summits have shown what’s possible when youth are trusted with their voices. Last year alone, nearly 300 students and chaperones from over 20 schools joined us for a day that reinforced a simple truth: young people are not just participants in change, they are leading it.
