Asian American Lead Leadership Empowerment and Development for Youth & Family

Washington, District Of Columbia

Our Mission

AALEAD supports low-income and underserved Asian Pacific American youth with educational empowerment, identity development, and leadership opportunities through after school, summer, and mentoring programs.

Who We Are

AALEAD focuses on healthy development and striving toward outcomes, rather than aiming to prevent destructive habits and behaviors. AALEAD staff puts youth first, providing them with choice, collaborative learning, and hands-on, project-based learning. We support youth to choose activities and how they would like to participate, make decisions on program structure and activities, plan program activities, lessons or events, and assess, evaluate, and reflect on activities. This allows youth to build self-confidence, empowers youth to take ownership and leadership of programs and see the immediate results of their responsible decisions. AALEAD empowers youth by connecting them with resources to succeed academically, choose a middle/high school, and prepare for college/future careers.
