Six young women who participate in the YWCA's Teen Leadership Center in San Ysidro will join the
professional honorees at the TWIN luncheon this year. "We are very excited to have all these girls
invited to TWIN, each sitting at a table purchased by businesses," says Jessica Russell, director of
the teen leadership programs at the YWCA. "It will be great practice for them to talk to the adults."
The Teen Leadership Center is one of the YWCA programs that TWIN proceeds help support...
The Teen Leadership Center also is supported by grants from San Diego County as well as private
foundations. The center's mission is to "provide a safe and secure environment for youth to learn
alternatives to juvenile delinquent behavior with the partnership of the schools, business community,
positive peer role models and adult leadership."
The center is located in the Villa Nueva Apartments complex in San Ysidro...The Teen Leadership
Center began there in 1978, and currently operates in the complex a drop-in program... "Since the
early 1980s, our YWCA has had at least one teen on the national teen council," says Russell. This
council speaks out on YWCA policies and "influences from a teen standpoint what adult members
are deciding."...
