Our Story

In the fall of 2017, a group of young Tibetans based in Boston gathered to collectively remember and celebrate the global, diasporic Tibetan spirit that has and still continues to impact their personal growths. To acknowledge on their will to act in the hopes of building and sustaining an inclusive space for the youth to thrive and belong in, they launched TYB. As a group, we believe that young people have the necessary knowledge, skills, and power to create strong, vibrant, and healthy communities. That’s why, we exist to mediate an environment that encourages and empowers young people to participate and act in benefit of the communities they are part of. In order to build and sustain an inclusive space for the youth to thrive and belong in, we aspire to have our work well-represent the needs of young people in our local community.

OUR MISSION

​

Tibetan Youth of Boston (TYB) is a community-based, youth-led initiative that strives to empower and engage the Tibetan youth in the Greater Boston area. Through our organized mentorship programs, peer recreational activities and active community engagement, we hope to cultivate an environment in which our youth can grow and succeed personally and professionally, while strengthening our shared collective identity as Tibetan Americans.
