UCLA Meyer and Renee Luskin Conference Center
Join us for our 5th annual summit, where we bring together entertainment industry professionals, youth activists, researchers, scientists, and public health leaders to support kids, teens, and young adults through some of the most pressing challenges of our time by meeting them where they are: on screens.
The Greg Berlanti Social Impact Award
CSS is excited to launch the the Greg Berlanti Social Impact Award, with acclaimed producer, director, and storyteller Greg Berlanti as its inaugural recipient at the 2025 Teens & Screens Summit.
Greg Berlanti's ability to create authentic, diverse narratives that resonate with teen and young adult audiences has made him one of the most influential voices in contemporary media. We are thrilled to recognize his contributions to the entertainment industry in this way.

Help us expand the reach and impact of this meaningful recognition. Your contribution to the Greg Berlanti Social Impact Award will enable us to grow our teen programming, reach more young storytellers, and amplify diverse voices that are driving positive change in media and entertainment. Together, we can ensure that creators who use their platforms for social good continue to be celebrated and supported.
