Behind every individual's unanswered “how to” question is a hunger to figure out their purpose and the process to get to success. The IT Tribe’s sole purpose is to demystify the barriers to success using the stories behind each voice to rewrite a narrative. There is a shortage of platforms for young voices to show how they are mastering their craft and navigating everyday challenges. The ultimate vision is to empower young adults to embrace their stories, own their identities, and fearlessly strive for what they want. Get plugged in and let’s grow!
