Today was a really exiting day. After the 10 hour trip down from Boston the day before, we were able to finally get hands on deck, exploring LAYC and meeting all the amazing staff that help out the community. When we reached the center, Diana, a Harvard graduate working with LAYC, gave us a tour of the center, as well as a detailed overview of the different areas where LAYC supports the youth community around them. They have awesome facilities for people to sit back and relax after school, sexual education and mental health centres, as well as college and career counselling. During our tour, we will able to meet the CEO of LAYC, who greeted us warmly and detailed the purpose of the institution as well as further develop on the type of relationship LAYC has built with the youth.
Further, we were lucky enough to be part of the escalera program screening process, picking appropriate questions and interview activities for prospective applicants for this pre-college program.
