Socratic Summer Academy

The Socratic Summer Academy (SSA) and the Yleana Leadership Academy (YLA) are both programs of the Yleana Leadership Foundation, a 501(c)(3) registered non-profit. Both serve the Foundation’s mission of creating exceptional educational experiences for young people of all income-levels and preparing our students for success as people and professionals, while decreasing the opportunity gap.

The funds from SSA students’ tuition goes directly to funding scholarships for YLA students, enabling us to serve our mission of decreasing the opportunity gap for low-income students in urban areas.
