The mission of 21st Century Leaders is, in short, to develop diverse leaders. Our summer leadership institutes are week-long programs for diverse high school students from across the state of Georgia to develop as leaders through workshops and networking with business professionals, explore careers through panels and talks with employees, and gain skills in social-emotional intelligence, diversity and inclusion, and both personal and professional leadership. We have four institutes (see flyer) – each focuses on a different industry – and students can apply to the institute they most prefer.

iYEP Summer Camp 2017 The 30-hour Training Program (over a 6-week period), is designed to introduce, encourage, and support entrepreneurship among teens and young adults in communities around Metro Atlanta. The training introduces skills for creating and managing a business, learning basic business practices, and applying spiritual principles to business, life skills, and community leadership. The curriculum is holistic and designed to be experiential, with interactive workshops, practical classroom exercises, field visits, and possible mentorships.
iYEP The iYEP initiative aims to actively engage middle and high school youth in their personal and economic
development, whereby they are empowered to become more innovative, creative, and productive in their families and communities. While the program continues to raise awareness, inform, train, and inspire youth to appreciate the power and benefits of becoming entrepreneurs later in life, the main objective is to motivate them to create micro businesses that they can start by the time the training ends.
The camp is for middle and high school students, and young adults aged 13 - 26.
