SCHOOL PARTNERSHIP

Bring New Youth Leaders to your school!  

New Youth Leaders (NYL) offers hands-on career exposure in the creative sector, helping students discover passions through workshops, field experiences, and post-secondary opportunities. Our program equips youth with essential 21st-century skills—such as critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration—that are increasingly demanded by employers across all industries.

Through capstone projects, community events, and writing campaigns, students build leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills. NYL prepares them to be flexible thinkers, effective learners, and innovative leaders who are engaged and ready to shape their futures.
