About Texas Tobacco-Free Teen Leadership Summits
TxSSC conducts Texas Tobacco-Free Teen Leadership Summits to train and equip community and school-based organizations to invest in youth, where young people and adult allies come together to create positive social change.
Summits are based on an overarching youth development philosophy, where the following standards are met. Youth will have the opportunity to experience the assurance of:
- a safe environment to learn,
- skills building opportunities,
- leadership opportunities,
- connection to community and school, and
- healthy relationships with adults and peers.
Summits provide training to young people to create change focused on improving health and well-being, while also gaining experience and skills to become leaders in their communities. Summit participants receive environmental prevention training to guide youth and adult partners in addressing the local community conditions social, physical, economic, as well as cultural that contribute to youth tobacco use.
