The Center for Youth Development thru Law
Change is Possible:
A summer with CYDL
Wanna a recipe for change? Here’s a good one :
- Take 16 at-risk teens
- Sift for those who dream of being lawyers … someday, somehow.
- Combine in a classroom with diverse and excellent teachers.
- Spread thouroughly across some challenging worthwhile internships.
- Sprinkle in a modest stipend.
- Bring to a boil all summer long in one hella’ great program called the Center for Youth Development through Law.
- Serve … (society for the rest of their lives)
25 minutes, 2008. Enjoy! We sure did. This is such a feel good story. Getting to video and hang out with these young people made us all feel like there is hope for the future.
The Center for Youth Development thru Law
CYDL, the Center for Youth Development thru Law, takes at-risk and disadvantaged high school youth and over a summer give them the law school experience, complete with classes, paid internships, and professional/psychological counseling. You can see the difference it makes to them, on their faces, day after day after day.
We couldn’t be prouder of being part of this, and we sincerely urge you to support the organization.
