| The MinKwon Center is expecting another year of courageous, creative resistance led by our community! Part of MinKwon's work is grounded in our belief that youth have the potential to become the leaders we've been looking for. We are currently seeking applicants for our spring '18 cohort of the Youth Empowerment Program, an education, service, and action program for Asian American/ immigrant high school youth. YEP is a space for youth to come together in workshops where they learn about the issues that affect our communities and work on a campaign or initiative to tackle them. Through weekly activity based sessions, students develop leadership skills, make new friends, and gain valuable knowledge on how to create change on a local level and in their daily lives. For their participation, youth receive service hours, recommendation letters, and potential consideration for the President's Service Award, as well as new friends and a sense of community. For more information and to apply, visit: http://minkwon.org/what-we-do/youth-empowerment/ If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Ying at 718-460-5600 x302 or youth@minkwon.org. The priority deadline for apps is Wednesday, 1/24 @ 11:59 PM. Please feel free to circulate or share with anyone who might benefit from this program. |
