Youth Summer Institute
WITH CUNY LAW
Led by students from the most diverse law school in the nation, this four-week program invites youth to engage with models of civic engagement, youth empowerment, social justice, and community advocacy to reimagine a more representative justice system.

Mentorship Program
Beginning in the Fall of 2024, First Impressions will bring young people together with legal professionals in a mentoring program designed to foster connection and highlight careers and callings dedicated to justice.

After School Programming
With the start of the 2024-25 school year, First Impressions will work with a community partner to provide specialized out-of-school-time programming to middle and high school students in community settings, empowering youth through opportunities for civic leadership and social justice advocacy.
