LEAD (Leadership Education and Action Development) is a formal
volunteer opportunity that provides kids with the opportunity to learn skills that will help them succeed as leaders, both in school and later in life. In the end, the young people will have acquired educational
enrichment, self-confidence, team spirit, and the means to make
a significant contribution to quality of life and the community.
Participation
in the LEADership program is open to all area youth in 5th - 12th grades. The cost of the program is discounted for Partners for the Planet members.
LEAD courses are offered in the summer. Check the volunteer calendar for dates of the next LEAD session.
