The ALL Youth Leadership program actively involves, educates and challenges youth to reach their fullest potential as leaders.
High school sophomores and juniors learn about their wider community, discover and develop their own leadership styles and practice team building and communication skills. Allen Lima Youth Leadership began as a project of the ALL Class of 1995, and the program was re-adopted by the Class of 2007. |
About the program |
Up to 35 students from Allen County public and parochial high schools, as well as home-school students, participate each school year with an orientation and several themed days, similar to the adult Signature Course. Themes include "Understanding Self and Leadership," "Diversity Is a Fact of Life," and "Government and Public Speaking." Students respond to issues important to them with group-determined service projects.
