Mission: Youth LEAD’s main goal is to inspire and mobilize youth leaders to reflect upon their values and beliefs, connect with others across differences, and act together to address local and global challenges.
Core Principles: The core principles maintain a profound belief in the wisdom of youth, encourage teens to think big and not be afraid to fail, and prepare young people to encounter and work through difficulties.
Mentorship model: Youth LEAD helps adult mentors to put youth in the driver’s seat, allowing teens to practice and enhance their leadership skills now, not waiting for when they are “old enough.” Mentors are taught how to support all youth in their leadership development, letting go of the need to control the outcome. This allows youth to try and to fail, each time learning and building on their repertoire of skills.
Long-term community engagement: In addition to training youth and mentors, Youth LEAD works with a community over several years to assess their unique strengths and challenges, convene community partners, provide program support, and work through difficulties that might arise.
Program Structure: Regular meetings provide a space for youth to reflect upon their values and beliefs, and to connect with others across differences. Youth decide upon the topics for each meeting and facilitate the discussions. Specialized trainings, conducted by the Youth LEAD creators from Boston, build communication, facilitation and organizing skills that youth need to have respectful “difficult conversations” and to address problems in their community. Youth-run service-learning projects provide Youth LEADers with the opportunity to act by planning and running their own community service and social justice projects throughout the year.
The YMCA of Greater Oklahoma City, The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR OKC), the Respect Diversity Foundation, Casady School Service-Learning Program, and Mercy School Institute, with other community partners, have combined efforts to help Youth LEAD become a national program. This unique, diverse group of community partners collaborates with the common goal of solid teen programming to make a difference in the lives of youth in Oklahoma City. The Y leads the groups’ efforts, as it has the ability to launch programs in every market in the United States and globally. Youth LEAD OKC is a catalyst for the expansion of this one of a kind program to engage youth leaders across differences.
YOUTH LEADERSHIP OKLAHOMA: This is an outstanding opportunity for high school juniors who have demonstrated a unique ability to lead others while making a significant impact upon their school and community. Each student selected will be awarded a full scholarship and will benefit from the incredible programs, speakers, and events as this class bonds together and discovers the treasures of Oklahoma!
The selection committee looks for students who represent our state’s best young leaders — those who have demonstrated leadership ability in activities such as student council, athletics and service clubs. Keep in mind that with approximately 50 class members chosen throughout the state, selection will be difficult. Every effort will be made to select a balance of representatives from across Oklahoma.
