Pathfinders Leadership Youth Program

A pathfinder is one that discovers a way or new route; they are not followers. This program is to help young scholars between the ages of 12-18 to build character, confidence, and reduce behavior and performance challenges, through consistent weekly mentorship from our team of mentors. In doing so, we expect to see better behavior, attendance, overall performance, while developing the leaders within from the scholars that complete this mentorship program.

Students will gain the following through the Pathfinders program


● Help them identify their values 

● Help them understand their passion versus purpose 

● The basics of Personal Finance (money, credit, saving, and investing)

● Better decision-making abilities & self-awareness 

● Build their confidence to network, speak in public and/or in interviews/pitching ideas 

● Teach them time management, goal setting and execution techniques 

● Development of leadership qualities and respect for others

● How to dress properly and basic professional etiquette
