The Chapel Hill Youth Council, Youth Community Project and Street Scene Teen Center are the week's organizers. They aim to celebrate youth identity, youth voices and youth-driven activities, according to a press release.

Teens who participate in one or more event will get free raffle tickets for a chance to win prizes including UNC-Chapel Hill gear, gift cards to local restaurants and a private shopping experience at Bevello for themselves and up to 10 friends.
