What We Do
At Youth World Education Project (YWEP), we empower youth ages 12-21 through transformative, evidence-based programs designed to develop leadership, social-emotional skills, and resilience. Our initiatives provide a safe space for youth to build confidence, strengthen peer relationships, and prepare for their futures.
Teen Circle Project (TCP)
The Teen Circle Project (TCP) encompasses our year-round evidence-based programs, youth-led community events, and youth leadership enrichment initiative. TCP is the foundation of our youth development model, using a psycho-educational approach with an experiential learning focus. Participants engage in small peer-led groups, learning essential life skills, positive social behaviors, and leadership strategies through weekly sessions led by certified facilitators.
