| Partners believes that youth are powerful agents of change, actively working together to find solutions to present-day problems in order to create a better future. Their talents and abilities must be nurtured and reinforced as they become mature and influential adult leaders who will build new opportunities for new generations. Partners' programs provide youth with the necessary tools and resources they need to realize their potential as leaders, to help them transcend barriers and to empower them to make a difference through their actions and ideas. |

YA Coordinator Connection |
| Partners currently implements the Youth Ambassador Program, which is a US State Department sponsored cultural exchange program that brings together youth from diverse communities across the Americas, ages 15-18, to build understanding among countries, increase leadership skills, and prepare them to be positive agents of change through volunteer service. They engage with local government and civic organizations, build relationships with host families and youth, and participate in skills-based trainings that enable and empower them to mobilize their communities towards positive change. |
