<b>The Martha’s Vineyard Youth Leadership Initiative’s</b> mission is to develop the next generation of leaders. MVYLI’s <b>Youth Leadership Summit for Sustainable Development</b> is a weeklong intensive leadership training, where youth delegates (ages 14-22) work with our seasoned youth leaders and faculty to envision their personal, professional, island and planetary goals and create action plans for sustainable projects.  

MVYLI’s year-round program builds on the youth’s goals from the Youth Summit and provides them with tools, training and leadership development opportunities.  We conduct weekly coaching sessions and monthly workshops in our <b>College Preparatory Program &amp; Field Trips</b>. 

We collaborate with the MV Commission and other island organizations to develop service-learning projects for their island and the world.   

Leadership opportunities include being representatives to the <b>Governor’s Youth Council</b>, <b>Cape &amp; Islands Youth Congress and NAACP Junior Members and Juneteenth Conference</b> and the <b>3<sup>rd</sup> Annual Walter Cronkite Awards Ceremony on August, 2012.  </b>

<b> </b>We expose their young minds to inspiring leaders, open doors and expand their horizons. MVYLI is a project of the Stone Soup Leadership Institute: www.mvyli.org
