Thank you, Youth Advisory Committee!

The 4th annual Teen Wellness Retreat is set to be an even more impactful event this year thanks to the invaluable contributions of the Youth Advisory Committee (YAC). These young leaders have played a pivotal role in shaping the retreat, ensuring it directly addresses the needs and interests of their peers.

The YAC has taken an active role in every stage of the planning process. Their fresh perspectives and lived experiences have been instrumental in creating a retreat that is both relevant and engaging. Additionally, the YAC has actively assisted staff in reaching out to local organizations, securing essential resources and support for the retreat. A highlight of this year's retreat will be the two workshops led entirely by YAC members. These young leaders have carefully crafted sessions designed to empower and inspire their peers!

Keynote Speaker



Who is the Keynote Speaker and what will they talk about?

This year's Keynote Speaker is Daniel Byun, FLEX College Prep's CEO. This session will equip teens with essential life skills for thriving in school, career, and personal life. Teens will discover practical strategies to cultivate compassion, curiosity, gratitude, grit, a growth mindset, perspective-taking, and purpose, and leave the workshop empowered to navigate challenges, build strong relationships, and achieve their full potential!











I attended last year. What's new?

We're always improving the event! There is a whole new lineup of workshops from different community partners. Look out for exciting opening activities, like Mindful LEGO® Minifigure Building, and new swag bags filled with mental health giveaways, goodies, stickers, healthy snacks, and more.

In addition, take a dip in the Cold Plunge Tub towards the end of the event to boost your energy level and improve your mood!
