Students from schools located across the Richmond metropiltian area met this morning on our campus to begin participating in St. Christopher's 2017 Summer Institute on Leadership and Public Service. Through a variety of programs and activities on our campus and out in the city, students will learn leadership skills and build relationships that will empower them to initiate change in their communities. 

Each year, the institute focuses on a specific theme. This year, participants will partner with local non-profit and government organizations, businesses and community groups to promote social justice across Richmond. 

Stay tuned for more updates on their activities as the program continues over the next three weeks. For now, learn more about the Summer Institute on Leadership and Public Service on our website.
