This website works to empower low-income urban youth to become leaders in communities across Rhode Island, advocating for policy changes. At the district and local levels students conduct research, make policy recommendations, and work with school leaders to increase graduation and attendance rates. At the state-level youth have testified at hearings on state education funding and teacher standards. At the Leadership Transformation Academy youth gain skills in public speaking, policy analysis, and networking.
