Dear Peter,
In a time when young people are demanding bold action and leading the way toward justice, Children’s Defense Fund is thrilled to invite you to two powerful national events this November that center youth leadership, collective joy, and transformative change.
Join us in Washington, DC, November 5-6, 2025:
MLK Library | November 5-6
We are living in an age where policymaking is becoming increasingly fragmented and designed by individuals who are disconnected from the realities we face every day. Join us for a national convening of young leaders, educators, advocates, and policymakers to discuss opportunities for building a beloved community, a place for laughter and play where children and youth can grow up with dignity, hope, and joy. Across two days, we’ll participate in plenaries, panels, breakout sessions, and networking opportunities that will offer a meaningful opportunity to amplify the voices and lived experiences of America’s youth, while engaging with other advocates.
