HUDA YOUTH LEADERSHIP PROGRAM

 

HYLP aims to enhance the leadership skills of Muslim youth. This program aims to shift the framework of participation and the perception of the youth within our community. Unfortunately, at times youth are disempowered and denied access to participate in the decision-making process. We want to encourage our youth to be free thinkers by identifying problems within their community and to bring forth their own solutions. 

 

We believe, given the rights tools and support, youth are capable of creating immense positive impact. Focusing on a youth empowerment perspective, which combines the strategies and insights of community organizing, can assist us in achieving the goals of youth development, not only for individual youth but also for youth and their communities.
