ABOUT BYLP

​​

The Black Youth Leadership Project (BYLP) is dedicated to empowering Black youth by providing exposure to the legislative process, leadership development, educational opportunities, and community engagement. We tackle the unique challenges they face by offering essential skills, resources, and support for academic, professional, and social success. Our mission centers on nurturing leadership qualities, fostering academic achievement, and promoting social-emotional well-being through mindfulness and communication skills. BYLP aims to break down barriers, create a supportive community, and inspire resilient leaders who contribute positively to their communities. We are committed to dismantling inequities and ensuring that every Black youth feels seen, valued, and capable of reaching their full potential.
