Calling all Latino Leaders in college (undergraduate and graduate students) and young professionals! The Central Valley Hispanic Youth Institute Kick-Off Program - Fresno State University – July 18 – 22, 2011 The Hispanic Youth Institute (HYI) is a national program that begins the Hispanic College Fund’s pipeline of programs by helping students graduate from college, become professionals, and give back to the community. Beginning in the summer, 100-200 high school students will experience a university campus for a four-day, three-night college empowerment program where students will learn to overcome both real and perceived barriers to college access. The students will participate in college and career workshops, connect with local Hispanic professionals, meet college admissions officers, interact with near-peer mentors, listen to inspirational speakers, and compete for scholarships. Throughout the on-campus experience, the students will build their confidence and receive practical tools to help them along their pathway to college.
