Youth leadership is overcoming the barriers of other expectations and taking initiative for whatever you believe in regardless of age. [After a year with VALA] I’m less afraid of speaking up – back then I would never say anything because I thought no one would listen, but now I’m willing to speak publicly.

Being part of VietAID has changed my life and I grew up with the program… Through all of my experiences with VietAID, I gained many skills such as leadership, responsibility, time management, and organization, as well as communication. Most importantly, as a young person, I learned how to make changes in my own life and in my community. Thank you to VietAID, I was able to find a place where I feel like I truly belong.
