UPLIFT Leadership is helping young Oregonians overcome barriers to education and employment by creating pathways toward confidence, career readiness, and long-term opportunity.

Kyle Kavas, Founder and President of UPLIFT Leadership, joined us for this Community Voices episode to talk about the organization’s work supporting underserved youth communities and their interactive Career Summit “playshop” experience — designed to help young people discover direction, build workplace skills, and prepare for the future in engaging and hands-on ways.

We discussed the importance of mentorship, self-awareness, and creating spaces where young people can explore what comes next with support and encouragement.
