Powering The Next Generation of Leaders
CBMLA CARES is a school-based youth development project where CBMLA facilitators and mentors lead weekly workshops designed to improve academic and life outcomes for middle school students. This year CARES returned after the world was rocked by a global pandemic. The return focused on helping the youth find their voices and develop visions for the future. They learned effective communication, self-awareness, healthy relationships, and more, culminating in a student led video project that we want to further develop and sustain.
