This popular event attracts students and educators from Westchester County, the greater Hudson Valley, and Fairfield County CT high schools, as dynamic keynote speakers cover important topics including human rights abuses and injustices, and the importance of youth leadership in confronting prejudice and discrimination.
This program was developed to further the mission of the HHREC by laying the foundation to encourage students to become “upstanders rather than bystanders.” Each year, students and educators from Westchester County, the greater Hudson Valley, and Fairfield County CT participate in this 3 day program.
