Youth Ambassadors Our vision is to help youth reach their potential through creative and innovative programming.

Youth Ambassadors is an educational employment program designed to provide underserved teenagers with important life and job skills, creative expression, and social support that increases self-confidence and resilience. Youth in our program take four classes: life and job skills, writing, art, and either health, speech, or financial literacy. Existing programming includes an 8-week Summer Intensive and an Academic Year Saturday Academy. Youth Ambassadors incorporates social support and instruction while also providing a first job experience for our youth (Ambassadors).
