SIgn Up To PArticipate in The Next Event
The 2026 ExPosure Bullying Prevention Event, held October 1–2 in San José, united youth, schools, civic leaders, community champions, sponsors, healthcare professionals, athletes, educators, and businesses around “KEEP YOUTH SAFE – STOP BULLIES” and #1000YouthVoices.
The two-day experience provided young people with leadership, bullying-prevention, mental wellness, arts and culture, civic engagement, and workforce experiences while connecting them with caring adults and professionals; PARTI describes ExPosure as part of its broader strategy to combine bullying prevention with youth leadership and real-world career exposure.
The event featured New York Times bestselling author Jodee Blanco, the National Football Wives Association, NFL Alumni, San Francisco 49ers Gold Rush Cheerleaders, youth performers, a fireside chat, and a VIP fashion show, with 70+ high school and college students contributing.
ExPosure strengthened a regional movement designed to engage 1,000 youth and reach 50,000+ youth and families, building stronger connections among young people, schools, civic leadership, healthcare, philanthropy, sports, and business.
Looking ahead, PARTI’s goal for 2026 is to expand this opportunity by providing 10 student ambassadors with $1,000 each in Financial Education Awards—helping them build a strong foundation for future financial independence and success.
