Rise Up Teen Summit

The Rise Up Teen Summit is more than just an event—it’s a movement, a powerful catalyst for change created by a teenager with a vision to empower her peers and transform communities. Founded by London Miller, a 14-year-old who has faced the challenges of living with ADHD and the pain of not being accepted by others, the summit is a testament to her resilience and determination to make a difference. London’s personal struggles inspired her to create a space where other teens could find their voice, share their experiences, and join forces to address the issues that matter most to them.

Held every three months, the Rise Up Teen Summit provides a safe haven where teens can break free from the chains of silence and fear, speaking openly about the challenges they face and the dreams they dare to pursue. Each summit tackles a critical theme that resonates deeply with the experiences of today’s youth. From building supportive relationships to cultivating leadership, confronting bullying, and the upcoming focus on boundaries, the summit doesn’t just talk about change—it demands it.

This time, we’re not just setting personal boundaries; we’re erasing the territorial lines that divide our communities and fuel violence. We’re calling on teens from every neighborhood to rise above the divisions that have kept them apart for too long. Together, we will dismantle the walls of misunderstanding and hostility, replacing them with bridges of trust, empathy, and solidarity.

Through powerful keynote speeches, raw and real panel discussions, and hands-on workshops, the Rise Up Teen Summit pushes teens to confront their fears, embrace their strengths, and unite in a shared vision of peace and progress. This is where the seeds of change are planted—where young voices are not just heard but amplified, and where the bonds forged can reshape the future of entire communities.

The Rise Up Teen Summit is more than a gathering; it’s a revolution led by the youth, for the youth.
