Power of Love  
This presentation is a combination of excerpts and original songs   that reinforce the words and inspirational speeches of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on the subject of the power of love, nonviolence, and change.  May this collection of music, words and songs be a moving, passionate, and gripping remembrance of Martin.

Youth Power Institute 
Research shows four attributes which consistently describe the resilient child -- the child who succeeds despite challenging or difficult environments.  These attributes are social competence, problem solving skills, autonomy, and a sense of purpose and future.  The Youth Power program fosters these attributes and holds that young people have positive skills and attributes to be tapped and strengthened. 

Youth Power is a ntional youth development organization that helps keep kids off drugs and alcohol.  Formerly "Just Say /no" International, Youth Power works with existing community organizations and school-based programs focusing on three key building blocks: community attachment, academic commitment and strengthened family bonds.  In each Youth Power Team, young people, under the guidance and supervision of adults and older-peer volunteers, are trained to provide service to their peers, schools and communities.  Using materials and modules developed nationally by Youth Power, local teams operate independently or in tandem with other programs. 

Rather than a one-shot educational approach, our prevention model builds youth protective factors by teaching skills that facilitate youth-led solutions to community problems.  Youth Power kids learn how to bring their power to bear to help others and in the process become better, more resilient young citizens.  The activities and projects they provide are able to help kids get out of gangs and help young people deal with issues related to teen pregnancy, suicide, drugs, date rape, AIDS, homelessness, and domestic violence.  This national movement of more than 60,000 youth is committed to working together to build safe communities filled with healthy kids.
