Student Global Ambassador Program (SGAP Leaders)
-
Student Global Ambassador Program (SGAP Leaders) is a leadership program that empowers our underserved youth (ages 13-18) to take action on real-world problems by using STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) to solve sustainability and social justice challenges. Our in-person or virtual workshops, tours and speaker series provide a vehicle for students to develop college and career readiness skills. Students choose the themes for our program which ranges from climate change, teen suicide and mental wellness, to human trafficking (to name a few).
In addition, our workshops challenge students from different schools, regions and countries to think critically around real issues that affect real lives; as a result they develop leadership and team building skills; and through the process, they gain a voice and feel empowered.
100% of the graduates from our Leadership Series program attend college or have accepted jobs at organizations such as Picatinny Arsenal (DOD) or Microsoft. We have impacted 4,100+ students in 78 schools in NY, NJ, MD, DC, and VA.
SGAP Leaders Sustainability Challenge 2021 begins in October.
