YMCA Junior Leadership Dayton

YMCA Junior Leadership Dayton The YMCA Junior Leadership Dayton (JLD) is a 9-month, intensive leadership development program for high school juniors in the Miami Valley.

The YMCA Junior Leadership Dayton program was created in 1999 through collaboration between the YMCA of Greater Dayton, the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce, Wright State University, the Dayton Foundation and the Leadership Dayton Association. It was designed to reach out to the youth in the Miami Valley region who are the next generation of leaders and prepare them for constructive and responsible

participation in community activities. YMCA Junior Leadership Dayton is modeled after “Leadership Dayton”, the highly successful adult program sponsored by the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce. The first program year began in 2000 with a class of 52 students from 11 area high schools. Over the past 13 years, 605 students from over 42 area high schools have graduated from the program, volunteering 11,403 hours of their time creating and completing various service projects throughout the Dayton community, partnering with organizations such as SAFY, The House of Bread, the Compassionate Friends of the Miami Valley and the Make a Wish Foundation. Additionally, the JLD Alumni Resource staff has donated over 4478 hours of service over the past 8 years to the JLD program by assisting in planning, fundraising and volunteering during program days. The Alumni Resource staff consists of youth who have graduated from the JLD program and want to give back through volunteer service.
