That's right - we've decided to bring the Summit back virtually so that we can continue to shape the Cape into a vibrant place to live and work for young professionals, year-round. We're excited to facilitate forward-thinking conversation, interactive learning opportunities, and community connections at the ONLY conference created for - and by - the Cape's young workforce community.
This year’s Summit focuses on the theme of RESILIENCE and how it applies on a personal, professional, community, and regional level as the Cape re-emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic. The Summit provides the Cape's young workforce community with educational and networking opportunities to thrive, personally and professionally, on Cape Cod by convening local employers, community leaders, and concerned citizens who are passionate about advancing local understanding and action around issues that impact opportunity for young working-age adults on Cape Cod.
"This year’s Shape Your Cape Summit will be an opportunity for us as leaders and up-and-comers across a variety of sectors to examine the current challenges, lessons learned, insights gained, and new opportunities that have been created in the last year, and to forge a path forward together.”
Sarah Nitsch, CCYP Board Member and Summit Committee Chair
Interactive sessions at this year’s Summit include: the two-part Pandemic Pivot sessions, covering how local nonprofits and businesses were able to respond to the challenges of COVID-19, innovate, and thrive in an otherwise difficult year; panel discussions on topics such as Standing In Your Power and How to Use It to Make a Difference in Your Community, Remote by Design, and It Takes a Village: The Ongoing Childcare Challenges on the Cape; Resilience Hot Topic Roundtables, and more!
The Summit will be anchored by a keynote address from networking expert, business strategist, podcast host, and author Julie Brown (April 7) and an afternoon keynote address from Jeni Wheeler, co-founder of the Family Table Collaborative and owner of Jeni’s Joy (April 8). Julie will focus on successful networking and career advancement strategies, while Jeni will use the story of how the Family Table Collaborative was conceived and launched to address pandemic-driven food insecurity on Cape Cod, and how her own personal story and that of the Family Table Collaborative demonstrate resilience in action.
The 2021 Summit is presented with generous support from our Presenting Sponsor, Cape Cod Healthcare. Thank you for making this event possible!
