Young Life in Auburn is active in all of Auburn High schools and Middle schools Young Life is making a difference in kids' lives. Here's an example of how Young Life is reaching kids: Ian regularly attends baseball practice at the middle school where he is a Young Life leader. At first, Ian did not know the young men on the baseball team, but after weeks of watching practice he began to get to know who they were and exchanged a few short conversations with some of the players. One day, one of the players approached Ian. "You come to watch us practice a lot don't you?" the young man asked Ian. "Yes, I do," Ian said. "That's cool," the young man said. "No one does that."
