Description

The California Youth Leadership Corps (CYLC) collaborates with selected community college partners to offer students community change career pathways across California. Community college students seeking careers in social change leadership pursue a post-secondary credential and participate in a paid nine or ten-month fellowship. Participants will learn about curricular models and funding strategies. We seek participants interested in developing their own programs as part of a national network.
