This summer, YWCA hosted a REACH program where high school students learned financial literacy, leadership development, and how to form healthy relationships while shepherding a group of younger summer campers (ages 5-12ish) in our Summer Kids in Play Program (SKIPP) through June to August. See YWCA youth Programs.
As a final project for the summer, these campers partnered with Community Television to produce a 3-minute video about the power of decisions. The purpose of this project was to teach them how to work with Media/TV while also synthesizing what they learned as leaders this summer.
