Building Tomorrows Leaders Today

The development of youth leadership is a common need expressed by almost every community organization. To address this need, the Nikkei Federation Youth Development Programs team developed the Rising Stars Youth Leadership Program. Rising Stars is a leadership development & cultural education program for high school students.

 

The goal of the program is to train leaders and to inspire youth involvement in the Japanese American community by presenting a series of active, engaging workshops on a variety of leadership topics.

Workshops topics include:
• Japanese American Community Awareness
• Working in groups
• Networking
• Powerful & Persuasive Presentations
• Being Assertive

Participants will have an opportunity to apply their skills by completing a group project. The Rising Stars group project was the Japanese American Community Miniature Golf Tournament and Raffle.

Where and when:
Sessions will be held on selected Saturdays from November through March, at the Japanese American Cultural and Community Center in Little Tokyo, Downtown Los Angeles.
