We accomplish our mission primarily through a three day seminar, where rising juniors participate in hands-on leadership activities, meet leaders in their state, and explore their own personal leadership skills – all while learning how to lead others and make a positive impact in their community.
The seminar curriculum develops leadership from three perspectives: Personal Leadership, Group Leadership, and Leadership for Society.
