The Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute (CGTI)

The Coalition sent 8 students to The Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute (CGTI) is a state-wide youth conference for students in grades 7-12 to learn leadership skills, meet other youth from around the state, and become empowered to create change in their schools and communities!

CGTI is an energetic & fun way for young people to develop their leadership potential. Youth leaders gain a sense of confidence, purpose and motivation that will not only continue throughout the school year, but the rest of their lives. CGTI helps participants create alternatives to the use of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs, enhances skills for effective decision-making and stress relief, provides opportunities to enhance positive self-image, and offers a built-in peer support system for living a healthy, balanced life.

Thank you Rich Rizzo and Pete Dell'Aquila for taking the students!
