YLI reaches out to youth who have not traditionally been viewed as leaders and involves them in shaping community change. YLI utilizes social justice, advocacy and community organizing principles to give young people a voice in creating positive, healthy communities. Each of our programs builds upon the assets and strengths of young people, engaging them in partnership with adults to create social change. We believe that young people themselves are best able to define the issues that concern them and identify solutions. Youth involved in our programs gain tools that enhance their development as socially engaged, active community leaders.
