“This program has invigorated my sense of community and reminded me of the many ways that leadership can be demonstrated. I have learned so much from hearing about different avenues that are possible that I had not previously considered for engaging in social action and civic engagement. This program has made me reach out to try new things, through volunteering, networking, or considering new career avenues for the future. ”
