The Building Leaders for Tomorrow Program will be held on Saturday, May 19, 2012 at Northern Virginia Community College on the Alexandria Campus, Bisdorf Building. This program is designed to empower minority youth and develop their leadership abilities to enable them to create community change and open doors. Building the Leaders for Tomorrow aims to provide participants with the information, skills and a road map to effectively engage others in their community. We encourage northern Virginia minority youth, from 16 years to 26 years of age to attend and learn to live their dreams.
The Building Leaders for Tomorrow Program will consist of a morning and an afternoon panel with breakouts sessions. The morning will feature “Youth Leaders” that have begun pursuing their dreams. The panelists will tell why this became their passion and describe the steps they took in pursuit of their goal. The afternoon panel will exploreopportunities “Beyond Our Borders” for those interested in international or out of state possibilities. We’ll end with opportunities for internships, fellowships and jobs.
We are planning for 150 youth. The day will be exciting and packed with interactive fun-filled learning opportunities. A delicious continental breakfast and lunch will be provided. Please share this with the youth you know.
This is a free program and seating is limited. Those seeking to participate must register by May 14, 2012 at http://y-lift.eventbrite.com.
