Introducing Change Leaders


We're excited to launch a new series called Change Leaders. A Change Leader is someone who has responded to an important, yet unmet need - ultimately contributing towards growth within another person, program or team. 


This month, we're shining the spotlight on Joel Martinez from the Anderson Munger Y! Joel has done an incredible job leading the Youth and Government delegation for AMY while also supporting delegates from the Hollywood Y. Joel is a steady, trusted leader who invests in his delegates each day and consistently leads with encouragement, integrity, and care. He exemplified that leadership when Anderson Munger delegate Devon Jasiukonis was announced. Joel was the first to congratulate him and walked alongside him to the stage, offering encouragement every step of the way. Thank you, Joel, for the dedication and heart you bring to developing the next generation of leaders.
