Lead On! For Peace and Equity
LeadOn! For Peace and Equality is a youth leadership program. Every year we recruit local teens to attend a three day conference in Anchorage where national and local speakers give presentations on various topics, such as healthy relationships, non-violence, leadership, positive choices and community involvement.
Youth plan and lead much of the conference. Past workshops include: “How to Start Your Own Leadership Program,” “Plan and See,” “Outdoor Leadership,” and “Let’s Talk About It: Teens Speak Out About Healthy Relationships.”
After the conference, youth return home and plan a project to impact their community in a positive way.
