 The all day summit was designed to give youth a chance to discuss issues they face. In addition, the summit offers a process for youth to politely interact to support programs and policies that better the lives of youth within the Denver-metro area. The Summit’s mission is to create a safe forum for youth to discuss, address, and implement an ongoing youth partnership within the community.

 For the past twenty years the PSYLT has planned and coordinated the Summit. The Summit’s agenda and workshops are developed, coordinated, and implemented by a12 member team comprised of youth between the ages of 13 to 18.
