Youth Summit FAQ
WHEN IS YOUTH SUMMIT NYC?
Every year, Youth Summit NYC is held on a school day at the end of May.
WHAT TOPICS DO WORKSHOPS FOCUS ON?
We encourage presenters to tell the story of their work and journeys. Workshops should relate to restorative practices, equity work, and/or youth-adult partnership (YAP) efforts. Some examples include: school discipline, community-building, youth organizing, civic participation, school-to-prison pipeline, affinity spaces, and culturally responsive education...but the possibilities are endless!

Youth Summit NYC workshops are reserved for schools that are currently served by the Restorative Practices Team of the Office of Safety & Youth Development (OSYD).
