Martin Luther King Jr. Day is more than a day of remembrance—it is a call to action. Dr. King believed deeply in the power of service, justice, and collective responsibility. He challenged us not only to dream of a better world, but to actively build it through courage, compassion, and community engagement.
MLK Day: A New Era of Youth Service in America brings together young people, educators, families, community leaders, and organizations at a pivotal moment. Across our communities, many young people are experiencing disconnection and barriers to meaningful civic participation. At the same time, they bring powerful ideas, lived experience, creativity, and a strong desire to make a difference.
This convening centers youth voice and elevates lived experience to ask an essential question: Are we creating the space, trust, and pathways young people need to lead?
Hosted by Youth Infusion in partnership with Youth Service America, this event is part of a broader statewide and national conversation as we approach America’s Semiquincentennial in 2026. Together, we will listen, reflect, and reimagine what service and civic engagement can look like for this generation—and how we can remove barriers while strengthening connections between youth and their communities.
We invite you to join us in shaping a new era of youth service—one rooted in trust, equity, purpose, and possibility.
👉 Registration is free and required for both in-person and virtual attendance.
