Youth Leaders for Literacy is an initiative of NEA and Youth Service America (YSA) to help youth direct their enthusiasm and creativity into reading-related service projects. The program was developed in 2001 to encourage and celebrate literacy service of our nation's young people, and to provide them with resources to conduct reading-related activities that benefit others.Grant applications should propose youth leadership in developing and implementing a literacy project that begins March 2, 2010 and culminates on YSA's Global Youth Service Days, April 23-25, 2010. Winners will be announced in late December.
