ATHENS – Thirty high school students from across Georgia are developing leadership skills and building knowledge about the state through a statewide youth leadership program at the University of Georgia. The 10th- and 11th-graders from 29 counties, selected from more than 300 nominations, are participating in Youth LEAD Georgia.
A partnership among UGA’s J.W. Fanning Institute for Leadership Development, Chick-fil-A Inc. and The Same House organization, Youth LEAD Georgia is designed to equip youths with the skills and knowledge necessary to be the future leaders of the state.
