Our Staff & Volunteers

It has been our privilege to lead, love, and support kids for over 75 years. This is how we build teams passionate about increasing our impact for the youth of New York City. The relationships formed between YL Leaders and kids in New York City is central to our efforts to reach young people from all walks of life, right where they are.
