On November 6, 2012 Chatham Drug Free hosted the 3rd annual Chatham County Youth Summit. The summit offered a unique opportunity for youth and adult facilitators to participate in a powerful, high energy and interactive day led by nationally recognized presenter and trainer, Eric Rowles. The focus of the summit was centered on oppurtinities for youth to help create community change.

After the summit, attendees were asked to participate in student led activities at schools, in the community and at the state level. Youth groups have opportunities to fund those initiatives that address identified problems and that support positive change.
