The future of East Orlando is bright, and it’s being shaped by a powerful new group: the East Orlando Youth Advisory Board (EOYAB). This program, designed for teens aged 12-18, is more than just your typical after-school club. It’s a launchpad for safe and healthy development, fostering independence, self-sustainability, and active participation within the community.
The EOYAB recently held its first orientation and workshop, marking the beginning of an exciting journey for these young leaders. The program focuses on equipping its members with the tools they need to thrive. From personal development and goal setting to understanding how to make a positive impact in their community, the EOYAB curriculum empowers teens to become well-rounded individuals with a voice.
The energy at the first workshop was palpable. These enthusiastic teens were eager to learn, connect, and make a difference. It’s clear that the EOYAB is fostering a space where young minds can flourish, perspectives are valued, and ideas can take root.
The potential for groundbreaking initiatives arising from this program is immense. Imagine the East Orlando of tomorrow, shaped by the ideas and perspectives of these engaged and empowered teens. The EOYAB is more than just a program; it’s an investment in the future, a chance to cultivate a generation of active, vibrant contributors who will shape the community for years to come.
This is just the beginning of the EOYAB’s story. Stay tuned as we follow these young leaders on their journey, witness their growth, and celebrate their achievements. The future of East Orlando is in good hands, and the sky’s the limit for what this inspiring group can accomplish!
