7th Annual PA Statewide Youth Convening, Aug 21-22

Posted by Pennsylvania Immigration and Citizenship Coalition on July 27, 2021

The time has come to Register for the PA Immigration and Citizenship Coalition (PICC) 7th Annual Pennsylvania Statewide Youth Convening, August 21-22, 2021!

We believe in the important role and impact of young leaders in our movement. This is why PICC has continued to engage immigrant youth from across the state in advocacy, provided support and direct leadership development! In order to ensure that youth voices are at the core of the immigrant rights movement and decision making PICC has developed Youth Membership Initiative and continued to host our annual Summer Immigrant and Refugee Leadership Youth Convening.

Our convening will bring together immigrant youth that originate from different walks of life across PA. During the weekend, attendees are able to share their stories and develop leadership skills, organizing skills, and have a chance to build relationships with other youth who share similar experience and goals.

This event is open to immigrant, refugees and children of immigrants ages 14-24 years old living in Pennsylvania.

Register.

This year’s Convening will be a 2 day virtual event. During the two days Youth will join workshops, network, and engage in activities to win prizes. Young people ages 14-25 are invited to register to attend. Please register with time so we can accommodate any language needs. If you have attended a PICC Statewide Convening in the past you can work the convening and receive a stipend for your work. We invite you to reach out to yenyromero@paimmigrant.org if you are interested in being part of the Leadership Team!
