Youth as Solutions (YaS) is creating a generation of citizens who are passionate about making a positive impact in their schools and communities. Through our self-paced service-learning program, Leadership Teams (consisting of at least two young people in grades 6-12 and an adult mentor) positively impact their communities by addressing one of these impact areas:
