Inspiring Young Emerging Leaders (I-YEL) encourages, prepares, and
challenges young people from diverse backgrounds to be advocates for
environmental and social change. I-YEL is initiated, designed, and
coordinated by youth, who receive support and training in planning and
implementing projects that create positive change in their communities.
Through leadership development, career exploration, and goal setting,
I-YEL participants acquire the skills necessary to be the teachers and
leaders of today and the future.
