What is the Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute (CGTI)?
The Cebrin Goodman Teen Institute (CGTI) is a youth leadership program that gives students the knowledge, confidence, and skills to live a drug and alcohol-free life. Our conference offers our youth opportunities to hear from and work with renowned speakers, connect with peers from across the state, expand prevention education, and more. Our conference serves as a foundation for skill development, youth, and adult networking, and, of course, fun!
CGTI is open to all 7th - 12th-grade students for the 2023-2024 school year, coming with a team or individually. This event is for students who are or want to be leaders in their schools and communities! We also encourage an adult from the school/community to attend to support the student's action plan.
