Over the past few weeks, our youth at Annandale High School have worked hard to research, prepare, and facilitate workshops for their peers. Youth are given the opportunity to generate ideas for topics that they find interesting. This year we covered a variety of topics such as:

 

  • Martial Arts
  • Vietnamese Culture/Cuisine
  • Song Writing
  • How to Pay for College.

This series not only gives our youth an opportunity to teach and learn about topics that they are interested in but it also allows them to practice their own public speaking and facilitation skills. Check out some moments below to see what we have been up to!
