The Los Angeles Department of Neighborhood Empowerment (EmpowerLA) proudly presents the 2026 EmpowerLA Youth Conference, a one-day event on Saturday, June 6, 2026 from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. designed to engage and inspire youth from across Los Angeles. This year’s event will welcome 100 young people, between the ages of 14-17, to dive into the role that the Neighborhood Council system plays in grassroots local democracy, attend learning sessions on ways to be civically engaged in the community, network with like-minded young leaders, engage with City leaders, and so much more!
EmpowerLA seeks to motivate young people to get involved with the Neighborhood Council system and intentionally shape their personal and professional futures. Conference attendees will have the opportunity to hear from local leaders on the power of youth voices, attend workshops, and get to know other young people in their community interested in a better Los Angeles. The event is free to attend, and breakfast and lunch will be provided to all attendees.
Youth interested in attending the 2026 EmpowerLA Conference will be asked to complete a short registration form. There is limited availability, so registration does not guarantee entry to the conference. The registration deadline is on Friday, April 24th.
Please contact Erica G. Doughty or Ava Marinelli, EmpowerLA Youth Conference Co-Chairs, with any questions.
