DYL supports immigrant origin and BIPOC youth by promoting summertime learning, facilitating social-emotional development, and offering exciting enrichment and field trip opportunities during the summer.

    Our program serves rising 1st-7th graders and divides students into three distinct cohorts, with rising 1st-2nd, 3rd-4th, and 5th-7th graders.
