Junior Leadership Development Program

About Junior Leadership Development Program

We are a non-profit committed to leadership development in order to create safe and thriving community. Junior Leadership Development Program (JLDP) provides leadership workshops, seminars, and mentors to at-risk youth.

JLDP was originally founded by a team of four Chico State students and is part of a recognized California non-profit know as the ATOL Foundation.

The JLDP team works to develop a leadership curriculum designed to help students understand their core values, leadership skills, strengths, and develop goals for their future.

Table Mountain High School, located within the Butte County Juvenile Hall, opened their doors to the JLDP team to put on their first program. After having great success, the team completed four additional programs at the Juvenile Hall and has expanded to Fairview High School in Chico.

Working with Fairview High School, provided the opportunity for the JLDP to develop an additional mentoring program between Chico State students and the students of Fairview.

Currently, the Junior Leadership Development Program runs a week-long course split in two phases: The first is Leadership and Life Skills workshops which focus on building self confidence, communication skills and decision making. The second phase is career mentoring. Both phases of the program are put on by Chico State students that see the benefits of helping youth while developing their own leadership skills.

Since 2011, more than 150 "at-risk" students have participated in the program. Graduates of the program receive Certificates for Identified Leadership.
