YWCA Delaware has launched a new YW Leaders program designed to help high school students develop a better understanding of who they are while cultivating an appreciation and understanding for individuals of diverse backgrounds whose appearance, values and interests differ from their own.
The new “Cultivating Young Leaders for Racial and Social Justice Program,” sponsored by M&T Bank, is a collaboration of YWCA Delaware’s Youth and Racial and Social Justice programs.
“As a champion of social justice for more than 125 years, YWCA Delaware is dedicated to eliminating racism,” said Paula Jenkins-Massie, president, YWCA board of directors and senior compliance manager, M&T Bank. “We understand our youth are our future leaders and hope this program will guide high school students to a deeper understanding and respect for their fellow classmates while sharing insights into their own experiences.”
