The Junior Youth Spiritual Empowerment Program (JYSEP) is a global movement that motivates young people aged 12 to 15 to work together with parents and community members to contribute to the well-being of their neighborhoods and the world at large. The program is founded on the idea that to help young people achieve their highest potential, education needs to address both their intellectual and spiritual development. While inspired by the Bahá’à Faith, the program does not approach education in the mode of religious instruction. It affirms that young people have a vital role to play in helping communities grow. While it is a global movement, JYSEP has yet to take root in Binghamton. We are looking for potential mentors and volunteers to work with middle school-aged young people in the program.
