Posted by on January 25, 2010

Youth Action Scholars is a group of 15 high school students who’ve completed a year in UCCP’s Temple Youth VOICES or the POWER Internship. As YAS, they develop, design and implement year-long peer education campaigns on issues of their choice. The 2009-10 groups have been focusing on Youth & Community Health, African American History Education and Political Awareness. They lead monthly Teen Cafes at Penrose Playground, which are  2-hour workshops for youth to learn from each other, have fun and eat healthy food. The announcement for the latest one is below:
