Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

YLI's mission is to build communities that invest in youth and where young people and adults come together to create positive social change.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Founded in 1991, Youth Leadership Institute (YLI) has sparked the leadership of 90,000 young people to solve pressing social issues and serve communities. YLI implements community-based programs throughout California in the counties of Fresno, Los Angeles, Madera, Marin, Merced, San Francisco, San Mateo, and Riverside. Across 90 cohorts, YLI serves 1,900 youth leaders ages 12-26 each week, 90% of whom are youth of color, and 67% of whom qualify as low income. A nationally recognized leader in the field of youth development, YLI provides young people with tools and support to identify community needs and implement solutions, while also training adult allies to successfully partner with youth in community change efforts. The young people of YLI have successfully advocated for over 135 policy wins across California over the last 32 years.

  • YLI's three largest program areas include: Civic Engagement on Youth Commissions - Working in partnership with county supervisors, youth have a voice in the policy making arena. YLI provides staff and training to youth commissions, as well as coaching for youth to serve on governmental boards and commissions. Prevention - Involving youth in creating healthy community environments that discourage access to, and use of, alcohol, tobacco and other drugs through policy change efforts. Youth Philanthropy - Engaging youth in awarding grants for programs that make a positive impact in communities.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
