The April 16th Youth Forum & Expo was specifically designed to introduce young people to tangible opportunities in food, farming and active living: from youth leadership and career-related education to paid and unpaid internships, structured volunteer activities, and jobs.   More than 400 participants and 65 organizations came together at Hostos Community College for a full day planned with and for youth leaders involved with health, wellness, and sustainability.

The day included: workshops by youth, for youth; an expo of enterprise projects, apprenticeships, internships and jobs; youth-led teams and organizations; dance, martial arts, and other activities; healthy, delicious food; and opportunities for youth and adult collaboration.
