For more than 25 years, The Brotherhood Sister Sol (BroSis)has been at the forefront of social justice, educating, organizing and training to challenge inequity and champion opportunity for all. With a focus on Black and Latinx youth, BroSis is where young people claim the power of their history, identity and community to build the future they want to see. Through unconditional love, around-the-clock support and wraparound programming, we make space for Black and Latinx young people to examine their roots, define their stories and awaken their agency.

BroSis Summer Leadership Program (SLP) provides an enriching environment and programs when school is out. SLP helps members broaden their worldview by curating experiences to explore New York City through fun and educational activities, as well as helps members gain skills for entering the workforce. Each year we adjust and diversify our program offerings to best respond to our members' needs. This is an opportunity for fellows and interns to get hands on direct experience working with our youth members. BroSis also utilizes the summer to engage in specific community enriching projects that further our impact throughout the year. The scope and goals of these projects vary from year to year.
The office headquarters of Brotherhood Sister Sol is located on 512 West 143rd Street, New York, NY 10031.
