Youth Leadership Program
Increase the availability of possibilities for transformational youth development and authentic leadership. The Youth Leadership Program prepares youth to be long-term community leaders and empowers them with the tools to address institutional obstacles that limit opportunities and potential. YLP is intended to provide lifelong enrichment opportunities to outstanding future leaders with a passion for learning and a desire to impact the world. YLP's vision is to build an impactful network of socially responsible and service-minded leaders who are connected and positively influence the world.

"Joining PCR really meant a lot to me, as it provided me with valuable experiences I would never have rceived anywhere else, also with the leadership oppportunity they provided me that I realy appreciated. Pcr was the first place where I met two of my best friends, who I still talk to about everyday life and also hang out frequently. The value of joining PCR can't be simply determined, as it really provids people with endless opportunities and ways to become involvd in the community and help the people who truly need support." — Timmy Lin, Sunset Park Leader, 2025
"When you volunteer, you aren't only supporting others, you;'re also growing yourself. Each experience teaches you something new, whether it's teamwork, patience, or confidence. These lessons stay with you far beyond the moment." — Ethan Zou, 2025
"When I started volunteering, I thought I was just giving my time. But what I didn't expect was how much I would grow from the experience. It's taught me patience, confidence, and how meaningful it feels to simply be there for others." — Eric Lin, Youth Program Coordinator, 2025
