The 15th annual Youth Social Justice Forum will be held in Milwaukee on Wednesday, November 19, 2014.
Every fall, the ACLU of Wisconsin Foundation joins community partners in sponsoring the day-long event to teach high school students to celebrate, exercise and protect their civil rights and liberties. The event is free to participating high schools.
The Youth Social Justice Forum uses hands-on workshops, realistic role-play activities and issues from the news to teach students about their rights.
Participants learn about new media, public art, civics and government, and discuss bullying, racial profiling, LGBT rights, restorative justice and other topics relevant to youth rights and responsibilities.
