Youth Empowerment
Our Youth Empowerment programs empower young people to use their voice while working in partnership with adults to positively impact their communities.
Why
When young people are connected to their communities through service they are more likely to be invested as leaders who contribute to their community’s success both now and in the future. Youth and adults working together creates stronger and more well-connected communities that better serve their residents.
Intended Outcomes
Youth Empowerment is where youth practice leadership skills while exploring important issues in their communities and making informed decisions with adults.
