Here’s what our members say:

“YEP has given me the opportunity to work with students from many other high schools and work on projects to make our community stronger.” -Regan, YEP member

“When I first started YEP, I didn’t think I could make any sort of difference in my community, but YEP has shown me that even though I am young, I have everything I need to make a meaningful impact on others. Now, I think being young can actually be an advantage because I have a unique perspective on what other youths are struggling with today.” -Katelin, YEP member

YEP membership applications are due by April 15. Limited spots are available.
