What
is "Vision" All About?
|
|
Vision
is a Minority Teen Conference that focuses on the popular
and unpopular issues that most affect our youth. During
this two days conference, participants will interact with
some of the state's most dynamic speakers, facilitators
and students. "Educate as we Elevate" is the theme
chosen for this extraordinary conference. Our purpose is
to provide each student with essential information to help
equip them in making key decisions and appropriate life
choices. At the end of the conference, each attendee will
have created a portfolio for future goals and endeavors,
giving them a blueprint for plans after graduation.
