I'm in 12th grade and a mentor of Youth Leadership Santa Fe. I am interested in becoming a doctor of veterinary medicine or psychology medicine. I have gone through this program with my brother who is currently in 10th grade. My goals are to encourage my younger siblings to pursue higher education. Cristina - Youth Participant
I'm a 10th grader at Monte del Sol Charter School and a 2016 Youth Leadership Santa Fe graduate. I'm hoping to pursue automotive engineering as my future career at New Mexico Tech. The Youth Leadership Program is one of the first out of school programs I've ever done and had an amazing time. This program has helped me improve as a person socially and as a leader. I've had a blast doing the ropes course, team building activities and field training. Thank you so much to all the advisors at Youth Leadership Santa Fe. - Robert - Youth Participant
I'm a sophomore at Capital High School and a graduate of 2016 Youth Leadership Santa Fe. When I graduate from high school I am interested in going to Hendrix to get my master's degree in English Literature. Youth Leadership Santa Fe has helped me speak freely with people and be comfortable speaking to a crowd. I'd like to thank those that have contributed to the scholarship fund. Your donation is helping us to be well rounded individuals. Desta - Youth Participant
"One of the huge values of this program is networking with diverse professionals engaged in a great variety of leadership projects and experiences." -Annmarie, Class of 2016 |

"Like most of life's experiences, it's who we share them with. My fellow classmates represented a far- reaching sampling of the community. I was able to meet, collaborate and make connections with people. I would most likely never have met otherwise. My mind was opened by the opinions of others whose lives and circumstances are different from my own. Through group and one-on- one discussions, I was able to widen my understanding and knowledge of some of the complex issues faced by our community." - Ken, Class of 2016
"The Leadership Santa Fe program was way beyond my expectations! Team building, understanding types of leaders, learning more about the Santa Fe community and challenging myself is an unforgettable experience." - Richard, Class of 2016

The end of the program year is a milestone and provokes a pause for reflection. It's a great time to take stock of the year behind and look ahead.
What are the stand-out peak moments for you so far this year?
At Leadership Santa Fe and Youth Leadership Santa Fe the unanimous answer is "the connections we made with our fellow class members and the new found knowledge about the community of Santa Fe."
Leadership Santa Fe and Youth Leadership Santa Fe had a terrific year, we're looking forward to another outstanding program starting in the fall of 2017. Below you will find our new program package for Non-Chamber members which includes tuition, our new logo, sponsor opportunities, our most recent graduates and more.
