Young people in the streets, the schools, the basketball courts, the barber shops, the hair salons, the mall, the PAL Centers, all around the city need to know that there are peer leaders who are concerned about our current condition. NLLC is dedicated to being a part of the solution rather than dwelling on problems of the past. We know that the potential is there for positive change to be made, and we are on the front lines of that change. We hope that the Youth Empowerment Movement will help improve the attitude that young people have about themselves and that adults have about us. NLLC is on the front line of that change. We are one of the few youth-governed organizations that truly seek to empower rather than pacify the warrior spirit in our peers.
