Young Leaders, Strong City (YLSC) is a dynamic brand that was founded in 2014 with a clear mission - to educate, equip, and activate a vibrant community of young leaders who are ready to make their mark in the world of racial justice and equity. At YLSC, we firmly believe in the power of knowledge and empowerment. Our programs are designed to help students navigate the complexities of intersectionality, enabling them to tackle both the issues and solutions in their communities.

We offer a range of unique community programming throughout the year, partnering with local school districts, higher education institutions, and nonprofit organizations. From learning labs and district-specific summits to student councils and our annual summit, YLSC provides students with the tools they need to drive systemic change on their campuses and in their communities. Our approach aligns with the Youth Engagement Continuum, fostering critical consciousness, self-advocacy, and collaborative equity initiatives.
