Teen Leadership Institute

Discover your leadership talents through our year-long leadership institute. The Teen Leadership Institute is currently accepting applications for female high schoolers interested in developing their leadership potential. A select group of high school girls will be chosen to participate in our leadership program to learn how they can become a strong voice for their community. Members will commit to monthly meetings throughout the school semester to learn about civic engagement, develop leadership techniques, explore social justice topics, connect with community leaders, attend field trips and organize volunteer projects. The institute will kick-off with a conference on January 29th at the Main Public Library from 10:00am to 4:00pm followed by monthly workshops. The deadline to apply is January 17th. The leadership institute is organized by Latinitas, a nonprofit dedicated to the advancement and empowerment of Latina youth. For more information, contact latinitaselpaso@yahoo.com or call 239.5051.
