The program
connects students who have leadership potential with each other and the

approximately 25 students from Rockland’s high schools who participated this

Among the
goals of the program is to encourage students to recognize their own potential and
give them the tools for improved community involvement. Additionally, the program fosters a
better understanding of contemporary issues through interaction and problem
solving with peers and community leaders.
Teen
Leadership Rockland runs from November through April. Sessions include public speaking, understanding the justice
system, and leadership in county government.
The
