Inspire to Lead - My Idea grant student-led project

The project "Inspire to Lead" was part of America's Promise Alliance and AT&Ts My Idea grants initiative to engage young people in an effort to keep their peers in school. Idea Leader Iko'tsimiskimaki "Ekoo" Beck (Missoula, Montana) designed the project to give Missoula youth the skills to be leaders in their own community and the ability to create less bullying, less violence, and an increased awareness of the diversity present in the schools so that students feel connected and welcomed in their learning environments.
