About This Cause
For over 25 years, UNL has been at the forefront of providing comprehensive year-round after-school programs, both in-person and virtually, catering to students from middle school through college. These pioneering initiatives have empowered youth to explore and nurture their passions, preparing them for the rigors of education, careers, and life's journeys. UNL's multifaceted programming encompasses peer-to-peer training, workforce development, postsecondary success, and life skills. Operating within a unique 10-year programming structure, UNL serves students from 8th grade through college graduation and beyond. Central to its mission is a leadership development model designed to help underserved youth envision and pursue brighter futures. Through a series of sequential and cumulative learning experiences, UNL guides students in identifying and maximizing their unique talents, acquiring a solid education, pursuing rewarding careers, and making meaningful contributions to society. Central to UNL's success are its three core programs, each carefully crafted to address students' specific needs and aspirations at different stages of their academic and personal development. "Powered by Service" engages 8th and 9th graders in community service activities and personal brand development, instilling in them a sense of social responsibility and civic-minded leadership. Meanwhile, "New Look Leadership Academy" provides high school students with a comprehensive four-year program focused on college and career preparation, offering valuable exposure to various industries and hands-on leadership development opportunities. For college students, "Moguls in Training" provides an online curriculum supplemented by peer mentoring, guiding participants through the transition to college life and preparing them for future career success. Through its unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation, UNL has achieved remarkable success over its 25-year history. With a 100% high school graduation rate and a 95% college attendance rate among its participants, UNL has transformed the lives of over 60,000 historically marginalized youth, empowering them to become leaders in their communities and beyond.
