SayPro, in collaboration with the United States Peace Corps, is focused on building local networks for peer support to empower youth in underserved areas. SayPro believes that young people thrive when they have access to mentors, role models, and safe spaces to express themselves. Through its partnership with the Peace Corps, SayPro supports the formation of youth groups that offer counseling, emotional support, and leadership development opportunities. SayPro ensures that every young person feels seen, heard, and valued as they work toward their goals and personal growth.
SayPro offers structured programs that include peer mentoring, community discussions, and interactive learning experiences. Peace Corps volunteers work closely with SayPro to train youth facilitators who guide their peers through life challenges and transitions. SayPro promotes mutual respect, mental wellness, and emotional intelligence, creating a positive environment where youth support each other. These local networks serve as springboards for personal development and social change. SayPro’s model encourages ownership and accountability among young participants.
SayPro is particularly committed to reaching marginalized youth, including those in rural areas, informal settlements, and conflict-affected zones. By leveraging the expertise of the Peace Corps, SayPro adapts its peer support model to diverse cultural and linguistic contexts. SayPro integrates arts, sports, and digital media into its programs to appeal to a broad range of interests. This flexibility ensures higher engagement and greater impact. SayPro is transforming isolated youth into empowered community builders ready to make a difference.
SayPro continues to expand these networks to more regions, aiming to establish permanent youth-led support hubs. With ongoing guidance from the Peace Corps, SayPro refines its programs and nurtures the next generation of advocates, innovators, and leaders. SayPro’s long-term vision is a continent where empowered youth collaborate to solve local problems and uplift their peers. Through peer-led support and positive youth engagement, SayPro ensures sustainable empowerment. Together, SayPro and the Peace Corps are laying the foundation for a more inclusive and resilient youth movement.
