“Leading Teams”
Recommended for Second Year - Fall Semester
Theme Overview: During the sophomore year, students continue in a regular service position while beginning to take on leadership roles. In this, they develop a sense of civic agency and identity. Students may begin leading and managing other volunteers or peers or taking on more sophisticated roles. These workshops will help prepare them for service leadership. The third capstone workshop allows students to look ahead, with an introduction to capacity building projects. Students begin to understand the multitude of project types that they can engaged in with community partners, which can prepare them for conversations about their positions and projects.
