Youth Programs

 We believe climate change is a generational justice issue that disproportionately affects young people.

Therefore, every day we work to empower youth to be part of the solution.

 

Youth Climate Action Summit

Communitopia’s annual Pittsburgh Youth Climate Action Summit connects young people from around the region with one shared goal: Climate Action for All! You won’t want to miss the 2024 Summit! Our 2024 Summit will be held again at the David H. Lawrence Convention Center, on Saturday, April 13, from 10 - 4.
