BHYL Opening Retreat

Description

Each year, thirty (30) Lafayette Parish high school students in their junior year are selected to attend a 9-month program (August - April) through which they will learn about arts & culture, education, local and state government, healthcare, emergency response, economic development, environmental issues, and more. After graduating, the students can continue to expand their leadership abilities by volunteering to serve as ex-officio (non-voting) on a local, participating, non-profit board during their senior year. 
This event is closed to the public.
