Welcome to Jimiri Atlanta!

Jimiri Detroit Youth Leadership Program

Jimiri is a social justice nonprofit that promotes cross-racial friendships and leadership training for middle-school and high-school students.

To help address the socio-economic disparities of segregation, we bring students together in small, racially diverse groups to build friendship, empathy, and understanding across racial lines.

Middle-school students gather on Sunday afternoons, engaging in social justice curricula and common-interest activities led by high-school and college facilitators who previously completed the program.

In this way, from middle school through college, our young Jimiri leaders build lifelong, cross-racial friendships that will serve as the foundation for the next generation of social justice leadership.

Tuition is free for all families, and free transportation is provided to all who attend.
