220 Youth Leadership empowers young people through experiential leadership education, practical skill-building, and mentorship so they graduate confident, civic-minded, and ready to lead. Combining research-backed curricula, small cohort coaching, and real-world projects, we help each student translate self-awareness into action—Be The Leader Of Your Own Life—so youth not only envision opportunities but create them with purpose and resilience.

At our core we champion agency, curiosity, and community: we believe every young person deserves the tools to know themselves, take responsibility for their choices, and pursue meaningful possibility. We prioritize empathy-driven coaching, rigorous learning experiences, and inclusive spaces that amplify diverse voices, guiding decisions that favor student growth, measurable impact, and partnerships that expand opportunity for all. These values shape how we design programs, mentor youth, and measure success—by personal transformation and stronger communities.
