What I Am Somebody! does: I Am Somebody! uses youth development and the art of storytelling to build a resilient, reconciled and integrated community. At the centre of our organisation is our eighteen-month Rites of Passage programme for young adults from diverse backgrounds. Within a nature based programme, young adults work to overcome barriers that inhibit them from courageously creating lives that matter. For these young adults, I Am Somebody! has created a support network of diverse individuals to assist them through its Mentorship Training Programme and its Community Building Programme as well as provide opportunities and access to 15 non profit organizations through its Partner Exchange Programme.
