History: Youth Speak Out Tour was birthed from the Building Youth Partnerships (December, 2012), Youth program. We believe that the best training involves workshops and seminars that cater to youth by educators, professional community leaders and role models. Our Mission Statement is to strive to keep youth connected in a positive environment. We are committed to empowering youth to come together for a positive change in the community. Our 1st "Youth Speak Out Tour" event was a success at Tennessee State University, on October 3, 2015. In a nutshell, this event brought over 60 plus youth to a day-long series of workshops designed to inform them about various aspects of the issues concerning their age group: including anti-bullying, how to apply for college admission information (this time MTSU has partnered with us to give a free tour), entertainment and a panel discussion on crime and violence; we will do the same on April 16, 2016 at MTSU and Chicago State University July 14, 2016! . The aim is to reach these Youth in their communities, and to help them become knowledgeable of the issues Youth face in society today.
