Healthy Youth, Healthy Tomorrow: Youth Summit 

The "Healthy Youth, Healthy Tomorrow: Youth Summit" aims to empower students with a heightened awareness regarding the importance of healthy lifestyle choices, disease prevention, and organ donation. The Youth Summits educate minority youth in the Greater Cleveland area in nutrition and wellness, body and kidney health, and organ/tissue donation and transplantation. Supported by collaboration with the Boys and Girls Club of Northeast Ohio, The Kidney Foundation of Ohio, and funding from Mt. Sinai, interactive breakout sessions with health professionals—including nutritionists, fitness instructors, and doctors/nurses—provide teens with comprehensive information to help prevent the onset of kidney failure and related chronic illnesses such as diabetes and hypertension.
