Want to give young people higher self-esteem and more self-confidence? Give them the opportunity to lead. In this webinar, we will explore the power in youth leadership. We will be joined by Cheryl Green, the Associate Director of the Aspen Young Leaders Fellowship, who will share how the fellowship is empowering young people of color to lead communities confronting racial inequities. We will also hear from Mississippi Delta teacher Kevin Martin, an alumnus of the fellowship and co-founder of a community-based organization advancing racial equity. Lastly, we will hear from Celine Bernhardt-Lanier, a high school senior, who is the CEO of an international organization rethinking social media use among teens. Make sure to tune in to discover innovative ways to cultivate leadership among young people.

County Health Rankings & Roadmaps will host a one-hour interactive virtual discussion at 4pm ET, immediately following the webinar. We encourage you to participate in an engaging dialogue with peers across the country to share your experiences with racial equity. Mark your calendars and plan to stay as long as you're able.
