50/50 Leadership is happy to have 12 new participants join our Youth Leadership Program
PASADENA, Calif. - Californer -- 50/50 Leadership is elated to announce the beginning of its eight-week Youth Leadership Internship Program this fall, which began on September 19th and concludes on November 14th.
The 50/50 Youth Leadership Program is a personal and professional development internship, based on assigning young people leadership skills to guide them along their journey from passionate activism to leadership with a focus on documentary filmmaking, STEM, and financial literacy for youth. We focus on providing students with opportunities for career and college readiness.
Through this 8-week experience, high school junior and senior interns will complete a project of value in their assigned area, participate in skills-building workshops, while connecting with professionals & youth leaders who serve as project mentors. Youth Leadership Program (YLP) training will focus on building self-confidence, accountability, and long-term goal setting skills. YLP team members have the opportunity to return the following semester as group leaders for future participants. YLP alumni are invited to speak at the 50/50 Youth Leadership Summit.

We support opportunities for youth leadership to build and share narratives through education, advocacy, and public speaking.
