Make it stand out

In Lead-Up

Our mission is bridging divides and breaking cycles of violence and poverty, through programs for youth in peaceful leadership with horses and empowerment in order to drive social transformation.

Lead-Up strives to prevent and reduce youth violence with a particular focus on interpersonal violence. We address violence reduction and prevention through positive youth development, focusing on strengthening socio-emotional skills and the mental health and well-being of youth to reduce individual risk factors such as mental health problems, low emotional intelligence, unemployment, and exposure to violence. 

Join us as we empower youth to create a world where compassion, empowerment, and peaceful leadership lead to lasting change!
