Y.A.M.M. Youth-Led Community Projects
Project I Lead

Program Overview
I lead is an afterschool program designed to involve youth and young adults in community projects that are created and led by youth ages 10-17 and young adults ages 18-24 throughout the Winston-Salem Community. Young men and ladies will be involved in numerous projects that they will collectively create as a group and implemented around the Winston-Salem area. Projects will consist of volunteer works in the community. Parents are encouraged to attend all final projects in support of their youth and/or young adult.

Service-learning is learning that actively involves students and young adults in a wide range of experiences, which often benefit others and the community, while also advancing the goals of a given subject or community concern. All service-learnings activities are community-based service activities that are paired with structured preparation and student and young adult reflection.

What is the purpose of I Lead?
The purpose of I Lead is to help young men and ladies learn leadership skills and social skills. Young men and ladies of Winston-Salem are in need of something to do after school that is constructive and can take them a long way in later years as adults. We will guide them on moral maturity through teaching them leadership skills by having them to create ideas and implement existing projects into reality and letting them bring the project into the public for the public to see what they have done as a collective group of future leaders.
