President Obama Announces “How to Make Change” Series for Young Americans

Summary: 
The President discusses a new youth series at a meeting with young Americans in the Roosevelt Room.

Last week, President Obama met with young Americans in the West Wing to de-brief on the “100 Youth Roundtables” Initiative. In that session, young folks reflected on the feedback given to the White House during the course of the initiative.
