Teen Summit 2017
Submitted by Detective Tracy Figone, Public Information Officer
The Fort Lauderdale Police Department would like to announce the 2017 Teen Summit, hosted by the Fort Lauderdale Black Police Officers Association. The Teen Summit will be held at Stranahan High School on Friday, July 14, 2017 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Stranahan High School, 1000 S.W. Fifth Pl., Fort Lauderdale.
The Teen Summit is a community outreach event that gives teens the opportunity to obtain valuable information about topics such as social media use, life skills, etiquette, and police interaction. Participants will be entertained by local music artists well as dance and step teams. Breakfast and lunch will be provided.
It is the hope of the Fort Lauderdale Police Department and the Fort Lauderdale Black Police Officers Association that the youth who choose to take advantage of this enriching opportunity will leave with valuable skills and information. We believe that the lessons learned during the Teen Summit will give participants the knowledge and confidence to make sound decisions which will ultimately help reduce juvenile offenses, leading to future success.
The Fort Lauderdale Police Department strongly encourages our community youth and youth groups to attend and take advantage of this rewarding opportunity.
