All GEAR UP students have opportunities to develop their leadership capacities and make a difference in their communities. This spring, 30 young men from our three districts came together for a seven Saturday program focused on leadership, led by Mr. Alejandro Baldwin and Mr. Cornelius Godfrey. Last summer, a group of 11 young women traveled to Chicago as a leadership/environmental trip. Contact your site director for more information about upcoming leadership activities.

For more information on how to get involved with this program for Autumn 2008, please contact Melissa Calabrese at wayne.westland.gearup@gmail.com .
