Across the country, through President Obama’s Roundtable Initiative for Young Americans, 384 youth roundtables were held with a wide range of your peers in 46 states, the District of Columbia, and Guam. As the initiative wrapped up at the end of May, President Obama and White House staff began to follow-up, with the launch of “How to Make Change,” an ongoing summer program that connects young people to the issues they cared about most during the roundtables. What exactly were those issues, how did they rank amongst all of the roundtables, and where around the country were these conversations held?
