Youth Leadership Program

The Youth Leadership Program is designed to instill leadership qualities in adolescents ages 14 - 18. The program meets year-round, with subgroups varying throughout the year. This program matches mentees (youth) to mentors (responsible adults) in order to provide at-risk youth with appropriate role models. The program includes workshops, field trips and activities to help develop leadership skills.
