DCCCA Youth Leadership Workshop

DCCCA is offering Kansas middle and high school students an opportunity to expand their leadership skills at FREE regional workshops coming this September. Reserve your space at one of our five regional workshops. Students must be accompanied by at least one school representative sponsor. Sessions are scheduled from 8:30 a.m. – 2 p.m. and lunch will be provided.

During these workshops, teams will be exposed to the Kansas Leadership Center leadership principles as well as an abbreviated look at the Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF). The teams will meet during TEAM TIMES to explore their Kansas Communities That Care (KCTC) data as well as identify any other prevention related concerns in their school or community. They will work together with their sponsors and create an Action Plan to take back home with them to put into action. For each team that incorporates their Action Plan when they return home will then be eligible for a possible stipend.

Space is limited, please register by clicking on the flyer above!
