Online Program Develops Leadership Skills in V.I. Youth

Leadership skills and success often go hand in hand and the team at Positive Youth Development V.I. wants to share those skills during a seven-week youth forum.

In September, the team launched its first program focusing on youth empowerment and personal development. The virtual sexual-risk avoidance education course under the V.I. Health Department was offered to 25 students. In December, their Virtual Empowerment Conference had more than 500 views on its social media platform. Now, the group is preparing for a new youth leadership forum, “Leading Your Own Life to Success.”
