YLA members discuss their first reading of the book 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens

Great things happened at this week’s Youth Leadership Association meeting! Our students held a discussion based on the first chapter of the book 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey and did a fun and interactive activity on paradigms. To encourage the students to be actively involved in their communities, Gladys Sanchez, a YLA member also did a presentation on her recent experience in a three-week medical program at the Saint Louis University in Missouri and her upcoming participating in the CHCI R2L NextGen Program in Washington, DC.  Additionally, Public Housing Supervisor Liz Hernandez announced the schedule for the Summer Activities that will be offered July 6 through August 6 and invited the YLA members to volunteer.  Our agency is excited for the turnout of this week’s meeting and looks forward to many more this summer.
