I want to make sure you know about a unique leadership program for youth who care about community service and social justice. Now in its 10th year, Youth Empowered Action YEA Camp is a life-changing week-long overnight camp with sessions in California and Massachusetts for youth who want to change the world -- and now a session for adults too! Campers come from all over the country and choose a social issue they want to work on, like the environment, gay rights, racism, animal cruelty, or another cause they care about. Throughout the week they build their confidence, develop concrete skills, make incredible like-minded friends, and leave with an action plan to make a difference on a cause of their choice when they go home.
