PROJECT ADVENTURE - YOUTH LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE Mission/Purpose: The Youth Leadership Institute (YLI) at Project Adventure promotes the empowerment of youth through innovative programming. YLI's experiential group process provides opportunities for youth to explore their value, encourage their discoveries, build their skills, and create supportive relationships.
Programs/Activities:
All young people coming into the
YLI will begin the process with the Community and Team-Building model, which
is an immersion into the Adventure group experience and exploration of
Adventure basics. From there, youth have the opportunity to further develop
in one of our advanced youth trainings: Leadership Skills, Conflict
Resolution and Peacemaking, and Diversity/Multiculturalism.
1.
Community and Team-Building
- A tailored sequence of Adventure activities that fosters individual and
team growth in an environment that is fun, safe and respectful. There are
also opportunities for youth to make positive choices, gain self-confidence
and learn skills that are critical to their lifelong development.
2.
Leadership
– Gives students the skills to understand their own leadership styles, how
teams work and an understanding of how the group can perform more
effectively.
3.
Conflict Resolution and
Peacemaking - Focuses
on building trust and community, resolving conflict, peacefully fostering
teamwork, and engendering self-esteem in students.
4.
Diversity and Multiculturalism
- Focuses on the value of diversity while enhancing intra- and inter-group
relations through an engaging and interactive approach.
