About this program

Serving youth and young adults ages 14–24 in Atlanta’s NPU-V area, this summer program provides employment, leadership training, and life skills development for those impacted by or at risk for involvement in gun violence. Participants gain hands-on work experience while receiving support in setting personal goals, practicing ethical leadership, and developing decision-making and conflict mediation skills.

The program also offers monthly mental health and wellness sessions, creating space for reflection and emotional growth. While optional, youth are strongly encouraged to attend.

By investing in these young leaders, we aim to strengthen community ties, promote personal transformation, and build sustainable alternatives to violence—preparing youth to perform with purpose, pride, and professionalism.
