Discover your Leadership Potential!
The Morven Park Center for Civic Impact invites middle and high school students to join us, along with our partners from Loudoun County Parks, Recreation, and Community Service, to participate in our Summer Youth Leadership program.
These multi-day initiatives expand young participants’ civic understanding by providing opportunities to engage with their community, network with experts and guest speakers, and practice peer-to-peer skill building. Students emerge with both enhanced leadership skills and a deeper sense of community.
- Engage in exciting team-building exercises that foster collaboration and cooperation.
- Develop effective communication skills through guided activities, ensuring your voice is heard.
- Connect with your peers and community.
- Lay the foundations for confident and responsible leadership, setting the stage for future success
