Teen Summit RVA will take place 9 a.m.-4 p.m. on Saturday, March 22, at the Greater Richmond Convention Center. Designed by students throughout the region, this year’s theme — Our Vision — highlights students’ desire to reach their aspirations and create a collective vision for the future. In addition to participating in engaging sessions and activities, teens will explore job opportunities and community resources at the InspireYouth@Work regional opportunities fair.
Students are aware of and need guidance for their ambitions and ideas for community collaboration. This year’s theme embodies this duality, reflecting each student’s personal dreams, strengths and uniqueness while celebrating the region's collective spirit and highlighting the power of unity and how shared vision can foster support, resources and opportunities for all.
Teen Summit RVA is free and open to all high school students. Participants must register in advance:
Chesterfield County high school students can pick up a permission form from their school’s front office and must return it by Feb. 7 to participate in Teen Summit RVA.
Students who have turned in their permission forms can register for sessions and experiences on Feb. 17.
Bus transportation to and from the event will be provided from four locations: Bird High, Thomas Dale High, Manchester High and Midlothian High.
