The Emerging Leaders Program is a dedicated nonprofit connecting ambitious Bronx students with the mentorship, skills, and opportunities to build their professional future. We facilitate real-world experience through spring internships at partner organizations like JPMorgan, the Bronx DA’s Office, and the Bronx Courthouse. Our scholars showcase their learning through dynamic projects, like our 10th Capstone , and develop critical thinking and public speaking skills on their journey to college and career success.
The bread and butter of ELP; after-school programming focused on helping scholars build professional skills. The program culminates with a capstone project where scholars collectively tackle and present a real-world case study
An after-school paid internship for high school scholars to hone the skills gained through ELP core programming through real-life exposure in a workplace
A unique “pod” based mentorship program for scholars to build long-lasting relationships with a diverse array of professionals across industries and experience levels, as well as their peers with similar experiences
Our program is for Bronx high school students who are serious about their future. When you join ELP, you don't just get advice—you get a community.
Our work is only possible with the support of dedicated professionals and partners who believe in Bronx talent. This is your chance to make a direct, lasting impact on a student's life.
