Did you know that, according to the 2021 Idaho Youth Risk Behavior Survey, nearly half of underage drinkers said they usually got alcohol from someone who gave it to them? Often, it’s adults over 21 who legally buy alcohol and then share it with minors. In Idaho, it’s against the law to provide alcohol to anyone under 21 or to allow minors to drink or possess alcohol in a place under your control—even if you didn’t give it to them directly.
Together, we can ensure brighter futures by keeping alcohol out of the hands of minors and helping our youth make safe, healthy choices.

The Idaho Youth Summit (IYS) is the flagship event of Idaho Drug Free Youth (iDFY), bringing together teens from across the state for four transformative days of leadership development, connection, and substance use prevention education. In 2025, the Summit welcomed more than 200 participants, creating a vibrant and inclusive space where students were empowered to grow—both personally and as leaders in their communities.
But the impact of IYS extends far beyond the keynote presentations and workshops. Through small-group discussions, hands-on activities, and peer-led conversations, teens gained practical tools to resist peer pressure, build healthy relationships, and make positive, substance-free choices. The programming emphasized real-life decision-making and gave students the confidence to say no to alcohol, vaping products, and misused prescription medications—helping them defy the odds and reach their full potential.
Perhaps most powerfully, IYS fosters a true sense of belonging. Many students arrive not knowing a single person—and leave with lifelong friendships, new confidence, and a stronger understanding of their worth. For some, it’s the first time they’ve felt genuinely seen and accepted. Participant stories often highlight life-changing moments: receiving their first heartfelt compliment during the beloved “Warm Fuzzy” tradition, or realizing they’re not alone in their struggles.
The Idaho Youth Summit isn’t just a four-day event—it’s a launchpad. Teens return home energized to start or grow iDFY chapters, lead prevention efforts, and carry forward a message of hope, resilience, and leadership in their schools and communities. The impact is immediate, lasting, and deeply personal.
