1) Is the March 14th Youth Summit open to high school students who live out of state? An 11th grader from Raliegh, NC will be visiting me that weekend. Want to see if he’ll be able to attend.
2) Do you have a description of the workshops, breakout session, and panel?
Thank you.

You can definitely bring your visitor! Just make sure to register them online.
The workshops will vary from How to Make Your Own Club to How to Build a Community Garden. The breakout sessions are designed to address any questions or concerns attendees may have about climate change, school environmental activism, and how to deal with an administration. The panel will be made up of four young environmental activists, and will be predominantly question and answer.

There is an opportunity for DC high school youth to participate in a climate change program at national parks this summer. It is an incredible new program and I want to get the opportunity into the hands of interested. How do I get in touch with teachers in DC who will help me get this out?
