The Youth Initiative project aims to enrich the lives of local youths through mentorship learning opportunities. By pairing youth participants with dedicated mentors, the program seeks to provide personalized guidance, support, and positive role models. Complementing this mentorship, organized outings will expose youths to cultural, educational and recreational activities, broadening their horizon while fostering a sense of community. The initiative is designed to promote personal growth, enhance academic achievements, strengthen community ties in Fort Greene, and create a supportive environment.
