  • iLEAD: Intermediate Leadership Conference

    We are excited to now invite all 11-13 year old youth from across Florida to the University of Florida’s campus for a two night and full day leadership development experience. They will have the opportunity to connect with others from across the state of Florida and explore potential interests to ignite their spark in life. These interests will be explored through on and offsite engaging educational workshops that will connect them to career field experts unique to this experience.
