This year’s theme is Everybody’s Awesome,
YWCA Clark County’s Prevention team is thrilled to announce the in-person return of the Queer Couve Youth Summit in 2025! This fulfilled full day is designed for LGBTQ+ youth (13-18 years old) in Clark County.
Please RSVP as space is limited. Attendees will build community, make friendships, enjoy a keynote speaker and select from breakout sessions.
What To Expect
Official workshop information is coming soon, but here are some examples from last year:
The summit will feature 6 different workshops led by local LGBTQ+ leaders, interactive activities, and sessions on personal development, personal development, community building, and self care. The summit aims to inspire youth to connect and project their joy as an act of resistance with the tools to keep them healthy, happy and safe.
