The summit brought together local, federal and international leaders to find a way to “counter hateful extremist ideologies that radicalize, recruit, or incite violence”, protect those vulnerable to the violent ideologies, and develop tangible solutions.

It also included specific plans and grants to study domestic radicalization and programs to fight it with the aid of local community organizations.
