Youth Leadership Development

International Center for Community Development - ICCD Youth Leadership Development Program. In order for our youth to be prepared to work in partnership with other youth and adults, they need to develop and enhance their leadership skills. Leadership training prepares youth to manage time, work as a team, set realistic goals, start conversations, facilitate meetings, and make effective presentations.  Promoting youth leadership development is a great way to promote positive life skills learning. The purpose of this program is to develop the knowledge, skills, and understanding youth need to become effective leaders within our culturally diverse community.

Funding provided by Dollar General Literacy Grant

We are very excited about the computer lab that our in house IT person, James Wilmoth, and volunteer, William Soriano, setup in late March 2013. Programs we intend to offer to the community include Computer Literacy Classes for children and adults. We know this program is in great demand because we had a waiting list even before the lab was setup!
