The Youth Health Summit aims to engage young people and their champions on the west side of Chicago in strategy conversations around health-related topics including, but not limited to, substance use, mental health, LGBTQIA+ health, housing insecurities, violence prevention, and justice involvement.

The Summit is intended for Chicago-based youth, community-based organizations, healthcare providers, youth development organizations, schools, city agencies involved in health programs, and public health practitioners. It centers the voices of young people by offering peer-led learning experiences and engaging activities for young people, while recognizing that healthcare does not only take place in the doctor’s office.
