Vegan Teen Summit

February 20-21, 2021
10:00 AM PST - 1:00 PM PST

Are you a teen who's trying to figure out what you want to do for a career (or a "grown-up" seeking a new field)? Want to create a more sustainable world but don't know where to start? Do you want a job you're passionate about? Join us as we interview experts in their field about the wide variety of career paths that create positive change.
