What is the Youth Initiatives Program?
Youth Initiatives comprise several grantmaking projects that promote critical thinking skills, self-expression, creativity, civic engagement and leadership opportunities for low-income youth, particularly young people of color who are marginalized through poverty or other factors. There’s the Youth Media Program, the Urban Debate Program, the Education Initiative, and the Arts Initiative—all part of the Open Society Institute’s U.S. program. OSI is part of network of foundations created and funded by George Soros, active in more than 50 countries around the world.
