Highlight of the Week
Harvard Radcliffe Emerging Leaders Kickoff!
The Emerging Leaders Program (“ELP”) at Radcliffe is a program being held during the spring
term of academic year 2022-2023. ELP is a youth leadership development program that brings
together local high-school students (“Mentees”) and Harvard undergraduates (“Mentors”) to
engage in discussions and action on themes related to gender and leadership, social movements, and civic engagement. The program will include a curriculum linked to the collections of Radcliffe’s Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America (“Library”) and the opportunity to design social action projects around community issues the Mentees identify.
Yesterday was the official program kickoff!
