About me:
Layout made by infamous_chiq at CreateBlog.com.
Youth Leading Change is a project of the Safe Streets Campaign, and it gives high school students the skills and knowledge to serve as leaders in their community. We encourage them to make positive choices for the future. The outcome is empowered youth encouraging and promoting civic engagement within their school and neighborhood community. They share their knowledge both informally, and through class presentations as well as school-wide assemblies. The YLC members have the opportunity to participate in activities focusing on leadership development.
We are currently active in the following high schools:
- Foss
- Lincoln
- Mount Tahoma
- Stadium
- Wilson
If you do not attend the following schools, and would like to form a community based site group, please contact Mike Babauta at (253) 272-6824 ext. 225(office).
