FORMAT:
The purpose of this event is to break the silence about several issues that Muslim youth in Columbus face on daily basis. Several youth will share their personal stories. Main youth speakers include Jasmin Osman, Siyat Mohamed and Fariha Tayyab. They will share their personal stories and the stories of those they have helped.

We have invited the leadership of all major mosques in the area and the elected officials.

We will have a seat on the stage for each invited guest. The names of the guests/mosques/orgs will be posted on their Seat. Youth will share their stories first. Adult leaders will be given a chance to respond to their stories in their own speeches. Youth questions will be followed after the first round of speeches. Leaders will have five minutes each to highlight the contribution of their organization in addressing the specific issues raised by the youth.
