A-VOYCE is the Asian Community Development Corporation's youth program for high school students in the Greater Boston area. A-VOYCE stands for Asian Voices of Organized Youth for Community Empowerment.

A-VOYCE equips youth to be community advocates who design spaces for collective dreams, joy, & power. We seek to guide youth from an inward exploration of personal identity into an outward transformation of community power. 

>> Meet New People:
You will be able to meet and network with community members and be part of a tight-knit youth group! It's a great opportunity to make new friends and learn about leaders and change makers in your community.  

>> Gain Leadership Skills:
Leadership looks different in everyone. At A-VOYCE, we believe that everyone is a leader. These workshops provide the opportunity and support to grow your leadership skills and understand your style. Some skills include: public speaking, collaboration, project management, critical thinking, and more!

>> Learn about your history and identity:
By diving into Asian & Asian American history and social justice topics, you will develop a deeper connection to yourself, your community, and the world around you.

>> Take Action and create a collaborative project! 
At A-VOYCE, you will be able to work with our youth staff to bring your ideas and vision to life. Using a design thinking framework and a foundation of community planning, you'll get a chance to both design and execute your own community project. See our website for what past youth have made: https://asiancdc.org/avoyce
