SADIE NASH

OUR MISSION

Sadie Nash Leadership Project was founded in 2001 to promote leadership and activism among young women. The program is designed to strengthen, empower, and equip young women as agents for change in their lives and in the world.  By increasing the participation of women in social, political, and economic decision-making, SNLP seeks to question and redefine the nature of leadership and to promote perspectives and practices that are cooperative, accountable, ethical, and effective.

Throughout the program, the specific goals for the young women are:

• To increase self-esteem
• To envision themselves as leaders now and in the future
• To understand and seek the right to equality
• To empower their decision-making ability
• To seek and value community action and involvement

THE SUMMER INSTITUTE 

This application is our way to get to know YOU better! We already believe that you are a leader and this your space to tell more about more that leadership. Have fun with it!

Sadie Nash is committed to diversity and inclusion meaning we serve all self-identified young women (this includes young people who identify as trans).

Our Summer Institute is an intensive 6-week program that will run from July 7 - August 15, 2014, Monday through Friday from 10am - 4:30pm.

THE STIPEND

To help you cover your expenses (food and transportation) during the summer you will receive a stipend during the program for everyday that you are there. You only receive the stipend when you are at the program because it covers those two direct costs that come with attendance.

ATTENDANCE

SNLP does not allow more than 3 absences during the summer program. SNLP requires attendance for both the strength of the community and to enhance your experience.
