Frequently Asked Questions

Who Is This Summit For?

The IYMS Summit is designed for youth and young adults ages 13–25, as well as parents, educators, and mentors who want to help inspire and guide the next generation of leaders.

Younger age groups are welcome to attend with parental supervision. However, as this is a Youth Summit, our goal is to create an environment centered on youth engagement and empowerment. We kindly ask that each adult attendee bring at least one youth participant.

How much does it cost to attend?

There's a $10 registration fee for attendees. Feel free to sponsor youth and young adults if you are unable to attend. Complimentary breakfast, lunch, prize giveaways, and entertainment will be provided.

What should I bring?

Bring a positive attitude and a readiness to connect! Wear comfortable clothes for sessions and a semi-formal outfit if you’d like to dress up for networking or photos. Just be comfortable and presentable.

Can I bring friends or family?

Absolutely! Growth is better together. We encourage you to invite youth ministries, youth organizations, friends, classmates, teammates, and family who can benefit from the experience.

However, we do not want a room full of adults. We are asking each adult to bring at least 1 youth to the Youth Summit.

How can I support if I can’t attend?

You can still make a difference by donating or becoming a sponsor. Your gift funds youth scholarships, venue space, complimentary breakfast, lunch, prize giveaways, entertainment, swag bags, materials, and decorations.
