College Pathway

Two New Upcoming College Pathway Workshops

Anti-Bullying Workshop

An email from former YTA Jr. Instructor Nick Lautoa who now attends Saint Mary’s College reads,

“This past semester I took a class at Saint Mary's that trained me how to facilitate an anti-bullying workshop. I would really like to give back to the organization (YTA) that has done so much for me.”

Nick and co-facilitator (Xavier) have been invited to join with YTA’s College Workshop series in 2011. A goal of this collaborative will be to show students that diversity and discrimination are part of everyday life and discuss how it’s up to each person to create change.

Healthy Hydration for Healthy Athletes: A Workshop on Healthy Beverages to Maximize Performance on the Courts and Beyond!

Your friends at Stanford and UCSF, Dr. Jason Bacha and Dr. Anisha Patel, invite you to a fun workshop on healthy drinks for growing athletes like you! Find out how much sugar is really in your drinks and why water is the best drink for you! After our workshop, you’ll be saying, “SERVE ME UP A GLASS OF WATER PLEASE!”
