Recently, Robert Carpenter, Director of National Programs with the Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Organization (HOBY), reached out to For High School Counselors to share information about a student opportunity for leadership. I am very familiar with the benefits that my former high school students have experienced from attending their State Leadership Seminar. In this guest post, I wanted to dispense information about HOBY with other high school counselors who may not be aware of this great opportunity!
Leadership Development Opportunity for High School Sophomores!
For more than five decades, HOBY has inspired young people to make a difference and become catalysts for positive change in their home, school, workplace, and community. Our Mission is to inspire and develop our global community of youth and volunteers to a life dedicated to leadership, service, and innovation.
HOBY seeks to partner with educators and counselors to provide leadership development opportunities for students. HOBY offers engaging, participatory State Leadership Seminars to 10,000+ high school sophomores each year and seeks to promote self-efficacy and community engagement in youth.
Seminars are hosted on college campuses and include a three to four day interactive experience involving practical training and building connections with local leaders, volunteers and other participants. Seminar curriculum is based on the Social Change Model and promotes leadership from three perspectives: Personal Leadership, Group Leadership, and Leadership for Society. After the seminar each student is provided opportunities for further mentorship and challenged to utilize their skills by engaging in 100+ hours of community service. We seek to partner with schools to identify and engage students passionate about developing and utilizing leadership skills. We value the full spectrum of student experiences and backgrounds.
HOBY seeks to build strong partnerships with local schools to identify the best opportunities for supporting students and communities via seminars and through ongoing collaboration.
Educators, counselors and community leaders can select and register students to represent their school. To nominate or register a student please email carpenterr@hoby.org or visit our webpage at www.hoby.org
