Patrick Robles and other members of Generation Z have always heard that they are the generation that will be able to solve the problems of today. But what if you get to the table and there's no seat for you? Patrick talks about how Generation Z’s chaotic upbringing has not only prepared them for their calling but also has energized them to step up and make change despite the challenges they face in trying to do that very thing.
21-year-old Patrick Robles is actively advocating and fighting for the community that built him. The undergraduate Student Body President of the University of Arizona, Patrick is a first-generation college student majoring in public management & policy with a minor in pre-law. Born and raised in the Southside of Tucson, Patrick is a proud product of the Sunnyside Unified School District.
After graduating High School in 2019, he became the youngest staffer for then Pima County Supervisor Ramón Valadez where he helped lead the office in constituent services. Additionally, Patrick joined the Sunnyside Foundation Board as the youngest board member in foundation history raising money and community support for Tucson's Southside. In 2021, Patrick was the youngest member of the Pima County Attorney’s Office Senior Leadership team where he served in the role of Community Outreach Coordinator and actively engaged in underserved communities in criminal justice reform efforts. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
