About Us
Mission Statement
Our young people are not only the future of our neighborhoods but also the key to thriving communities today. The Chinatown CDC Youth Leadership Program offers young people in-depth involvement and training in community issues. Our programs give youth opportunities to learn more about their community and apply what they learn through direct services to become effective future community leaders.
The goal of our youth groups are to dig deep into these community efforts, discover what is commonly neglected and deliver the message to the people. We want people to become aware of the inner-workings of a unique community-driven district like Chinatown, and we want people to join our battle in sustaining such a wonderful community. We hope to get the message across that the well-being of Chinatown lies in the hands of everybody, not just Chinatown residents. How has Chinatown preserved itself and its culture?
