EMPOWER
YOUTH GROUP
Empower Youth Coalition, part of the MCSAP Coalition, has a mission to inspire and empower students in grades 7-12 across Martin County high schools (Fairmont, GHEC, MLHS, Truman, and MCW). Through engaging monthly meetings, we cultivate a community where youth learn to make healthy choices, uplift their peers, and actively contribute to positive community transformation.
