Kizuna Little Tokyo, Inc.

Kizuna Summer Camps create brave spaces that encourage and exalt a sense of self through cultural programming. By adding a foundation of leadership, confidence, identity, and 21st Century Skills to our teen/young adult programs, we are investing in our youth and in our future. By supporting more AANHPI community leadership, we further our mission of inclusivity, ultimately leading to a more diverse and invested community stakeholders.

Kizuna believes that it is our responsibility to develop the next generation of leaders. Our new Leadership in Action Program is open to teens who are interested in activism to make positive changes to their communities' safety. They will attend workshops to learn how to execute their projects. Once projects are defined and approved, teens are given a stipend to fund and execute their work. Finally, they will present their successes and challenges at public and evaluated culmination ceremony.
