The Service Learning Project (SLP) is an action civics program for elementary, middle, and high school-aged youth. Through our in school, after school, and virtual programs, our students become leaders and agents of positive change in their communities by working together to help solve social problems of their choice. The students are in charge at SLP – every step of the process is youth-driven – and every final project has a real and profound impact.
We are currently accepting applications for our spring 2021 virtual SLP Lab. Participants will work together with a group of their peers to use their voices to make positive change in their community and beyond. The students are in charge at SLP! They will decide what issue to tackle, become experts on the problem through hands-on research, and then take concrete steps to implement their chosen solution.
Here are the details:
- What: An opportunity for young people to make real change on a social issue they are passionate about. Each Lab includes a weekly group meeting during the after-school hours along with independent work between meetings.
- When: Spring Labs begin the week of January 25 and end the week of April 26.
- Who: 4th-12th grade students from anywhere in the U.S.
- Where: Online! Group meetings will take place through Zoom.
- How: Submit your application here. We are accepting applications on a rolling basis until January 13.
- Why: Participating in action civics can help young people feel connected and empowered during this incredibly challenging time.

Hello, I’m an independent Graphic Designer with over 17 years of experience in the design industry. Along the way I have picked up several awards in book arts and graphic design. My work is often informed by my diverse educational background. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Electronics, Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design, Certificate in Interior Design and Post Baccalaureate in Book Arts.
I’m passionate about design. Good design. Design that makes you think. Design that connects. Design that evokes an emotional response. I love to push boundaries and think outside the box. I love to create. To innovate. I love experimenting with new materials, ideas and processes, always striving to find new ways of approaching a problem, finding new solutions. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don’t, but I am satisfied for having tried. I accept my failures as a part of the process, learn from them and move on. But when I am done, I would have created something that’s original and fresh. Design to me is like a journey, a process, and an evolution of form and ideas.
