Registration for the Youth Ambassadors (YAP) program for the year 2018 is open. The YAP program targets students aged 15 to 18 and adult mentors from all over the Americas (including Haiti) to promote mutual understanding, increase their leadership skills, and prepare young people to participate to make a difference in their communities.

Participants will engage in workshops, community service activities, team building exercises, meetings with community leaders, and home stays with American families. Upon their return home, the students apply what they have learned to implement projects that serve needs in their communities.
