PEACE-ING OURSELVES TOGETHER- Youth Corps newest
initiative!
On
December 19th and 20th, from 9:00-5:00, VolunteerLEON's Youth Corps will
be sponsoring HIPP Training at the Jack McLean Community Center. HIPP
stands for Help Increase the Peace Program; a fun, interactive, free
workshop that builds leadership skills through communication, conflict
resolution and team work. The workshop is also meant to strengthen
participants' understanding and collaboration across races, cultures,
and generations.
The training is open to middle and high school
students, and to adults who work with, or volunteer with, young people.
The only other qualification is that you have a desire to better our
community and the world! Pre-registration is required. For more
information please contact Meghan Heitman at
HeitmanM@leoncountyfl.gov or 850-606-1979. Applications are
due no later than December 12th and can be accessed online at
