LearnServe Community Outreach VISTA

Learn Serve’s mission is to equip high school students from diverse backgrounds with the entrepreneurial vision, tenacity, confidence, and leadership skills needed to tackle social challenges at home and abroad as part of our after school program. Just as important, students learn about themselves and their power as leaders equipped to make positive change. Learn Serve’s VISTA project will deepen programming and expand our community with the goal to give even more young people the opportunity to become leaders and changemakers.
