Summary:
Youth can be the change we wish to see in the world! Transformative leadership is a model of service-oriented leadership empowers youth to develop themselves so they can best contribute to the betterment of society. Transformative leadership camps give participants a chance to work on their servant leadership skills as a way to be change agents in their communities.

Transformational leadership summer camp is a four-day workshop for high school students hosted on the UCF downtown campus during June. The students participate in interactive individual and team processes including arts, games, lessons, activities and journaling. Students learn skills and capabilities to face the challenges in society today, clarify their values and transform their relationships. We aim for the youth to gain confidence, clarity and ways of thinking out their leadership from a place of collaboration and service. 100% of past workshop attendees said they were likely or very likely to recommend the workshop to other youth.
