Zooming in The Alliance of Elite Youth Leadership, or AEYL, oers four core programs. The leadership develop- ment includes community-based mentorship for teens and young adults. This involves consistent one-on-one mentoring between a teen or young adult, and an adult sta member.

The nonprot averages between 130-250 families who participate consistently in their programs. What they’re saying “I just love how you learn a little bit of every- thing,” Junior AEYL member Demaris said. “You learn leadership [and] you get mentorship if you need any help with your studies.” Looking ahead While the nonprot currently hosts programs
