The Youth Empowerment Program (YEP) brings together immigrant high school youth of color so that they can learn about issues of injustice in their communities and potential solutions. Through training, community outreach, education, and workshops, youth will gain a deeper historical and political understanding of their experiences in America.

WHERE: YEP will be primarily on zoom, but there will be plenty of opportunities to meet in person.

WHEN: We will meet once a week on Fridays for two-hour sessions where we will learn about social issues local and global, unpack and dissect how these issues affect us, and how we can change the status quo and empower our communities. We will also participate in civic action, community events, mutual aid efforts, and other fun activities.

Deadline to apply is Friday, 9/17 11:59PM
