Anytown Youth Leadership Institute

Picture
Anytown Youth Leadership Institute is an 8-day, full immersion, residential program for high school youth interested in making their school and community environments more socially just. Participants have the opportunity to explore topics of discrimination through experiential exercises and group dialogue, while making close friends from across the St. Louis region. Students leave Anytown as young people dedicated to creating a society based on inclusion, trust, and mutual respect.
