About Clay

CLAY Student Leadership is a program designed to

positively transform the lives of students and parents

in at-risk communities through holistic and relevant

leadership training.  Since its inception in 1997,

CLAY Student Leadership’s mission of CARING LOVING

ALL YOUTH (CLAY) has helped decrease the

maladaptive behaviors of at-risk students and

increased the effectiveness of at-promise students by

partnering with schools, churches, nonprofit

organizations, outreach programs, and corporations to foster a community-based approach to student transformation. Through CLAY Student Leadership students and families find hope and purpose as each student learns to dream again and gains the practical tools to achieve their dreams.
