About this event

Come be a culture catalyst for the next generation. Join us for a meaningful evening of giving back at our Culture First Volunteer Event in partnership with Youth Assistance Coalition (YAC)! This is a follow up from our November 2025 event.

Together we’ll be facilitating a workshop for the young people served by YAC, building culture and supporting those in need in our local community.

What We’ll Do:

  • Guide YAC youth in an exercise comparing "analog" emotional processing with the response of ChatGPT therapist mode

  • Share our professional experience with youth navigating the evolving world of AI

  • Connect with fellow colleagues and community members while mentoring the next generation of professionals

Why It Matters:
Youth Assistance Coalition creates critical support systems for youth in San Diego by counseling, mentoring, and providing essential resources. Many young people struggle with emotional processing and critical thinking, and this session will teach them tools to support their development and prepare them for the professional world.

What to Bring / What’s Provided:

  • We’ll supply all writing supplies and workshop materials

  • Dress casually and comfortably.

What You’ll Gain:

  • The chance to make a direct, tangible difference in the lives of youth in our community.

  • Connect with individuals with shared values in a service-focused setting.

  • Be part of building a community of care, empathy, and action.

P.S. As always we will be providing snacks and drinks for those who attend!
