Youth Leadership Program


 The Harbor House Youth Leadership Program (YLP) develops and encourages high school students in Oakland to be agents of positive change in their community. Participants have opportunities to discover and practice their inherent gifts and talents, develop safe and caring relationships with peers, adults, and mentor students in our K-5 after-school program. Interns meet together for daily debriefs to learn various aspects of leadership such as communication, emotional wellness, and professional skills for future employment.
