L.E.A.D. Center For Youth
@LEADAtlanta
L.E.A.D.'s mission is to empower Black youth in Atlanta by using sports to teach them how to overcome crime, poverty and racism.
When I was younger, baseball was everything to me. I never thought I would be in state government and certainly never thought I was going to run for Governor. Thank you to my friends CJ and Kelli Stewart for letting me come back and speak to your @leadatlanta ambassadors about how the skills they’re learning in baseball will follow them through life.
We’re so proud of our amazing @APSWestManor tennis players who were honored by @LEADAtlanta with the Lady Ambassadors Award! Their teamwork, confidence, and leadership shine on and off the court - true examples of West Manor pride! @DrLWestManor1 @JohnDevia11 @ib_manor
⛳️ We’re thrilled to announce we raised $160,000 at our 16th Annual Golf Challenge to help further @LEADAtlanta’s mission of empowering the next generation of Atlanta leaders. Thank you to our participants, volunteers, and community partners who brought this to life🏆💚
On Saturday, FBI Atlanta joined the L.E.A.D. Center for Youth for their 11th Annual Safe at Home Game at @GeorgiaTech! This exciting event brought together L.E.A.D. ‘Ambassadors’ and Atlanta-area law enforcement for a friendly, self-officiated game. We’re proud to partner with the community for a great cause and some good-natured competition amongst our partners! @LEADAtlanta leadcenterforyouth.org
‘29 Markelious Foster (GA) puts a solid swing on this to get on base in the late innings. Really athletic player with feel for SS, quick release from low slot & can make plays on the move; bank on the hit tool continuing to develop. #SESuperNIT @PG_Georgia
Today on #NationalStudentAthleteDay, we’re celebrating @LEADAtlanta Ambassador, Justice Morrison! A standout at Westlake HS (’27), he’s competed in MLB Develops camps and mentors 200+ APS student-athletes through LE.A.D. Justice leads with humility, inspiring the next generation!

2027 SS Justice Morrison finds a barrel and drives this back up-the-middle. Shows good length in-zone while getting the barrel on-plane. Savvy defender at the 6 with lateral quickness and athleticism throughout as well. @WestlakeDugout #GAHS25
Huge thanks to C.J. Stewart for sharing his wisdom and inspiring journey with us 🙌 From overcoming poverty to becoming a top baseball ⚾ development pro, he's now empowering Atlanta’s youth through the @LEADAtlanta program. Keep making a difference, C.J.!
