Empowerment = Education + Experience + Exposure
Our strategic approach is built around a belief in the potential of each student, but also an awareness of the obstacles many face on the path to success.

Our Programs
GRADES 6-8
Middle School
Middle School is a critical point where youth go through their first major school transition while tackling issues such as self-worth, values, and identity more than ever. Our programs reach students who benefit most from extra-curricular opportunities by providing the tools & relationships to navigate life successfully.
GRADES 9-12
High School
The transition to high school creates another major opportunity to impact the lives of students. We support students as they enter high school as well as throughout their high school careers. Our programs provide a community outside the classroom where students can belong, be active, be challenged, and be excellent.
COLLEGE & PROFESSIONAL
Post-Graduation
The relationships built within YEMBA don’t end at graduation. Students continue their mentorship journey as they pursue higher education, internships, career opportunities. Graduates returning to YEMBA play an important role in inspiring our mentees and junior mentors to pursue college educations or career training.
