“Lead a Changing World” is Coming in April!

Are you ready to change the world one policy at a time? Porter’s Center for Global Leadership is thrilled to announce its annual spring LEADS event on Saturday, April 12, 2025! This isn’t just another workshop—it’s your chance to lead, learn, and create impactful change.

Middle school girls with big dreams and bold ideas—this one’s for you. At this spring’s LEADS event, “Lead a Changing World: Be a Politician for a Day!” participants will step into the shoes of policymakers for a hands-on journey through the legislative process. Imagine understanding the intricate ways laws are made, how they come to life, and how they shape the global issues we all care about.

Throughout this empowering day, attendees will develop critical skills in reading, analyzing, and evaluating real pieces of legislation. But that’s not all—they’ll get to design their very own policies, putting creativity and problem-solving to the test in ways that mirror real-world government challenges.

The workshop doesn’t just teach civic engagement; it breathes life into it. By gaining deeper insights into the systems that shape our society, participants will walk away with the confidence and tools to navigate these frameworks and enact change. At Porter’s, we believe in fostering leaders who don’t just dream of a better world but have the knowledge and grit to create it.

Together, let’s equip the next generation of changemakers with the tools to lead a changing world.
