Why Students Choose LEAP

LEAP is an inspiring and engaging opportunity like no other.

For over 14 years, LEAP Week has been held at the prestigious UCLA campus in
Los Angeles, CA. Our motivational summer program for young adults, aged 15
to 25, provides high school and college students as well as young professionals
with the knowledge, skill-set, and tools to achieve success in their personal and
professional lives.

Every LEAP student or young adult leaves our program with a lifelong support
system of peers and mentors, the structure and motivation to achieve goals, and
life skills to help them succeed in any career field.

What You Can Expect

Each day, students will have the opportunity to experience top speakers and
professionals on our online platform, and be coached by our small group leaders,
all of whom have graduated from LEAP Week and gone on to achieve incredible
goals.

                                       Each participant will be able to build a
                                       sense of community and long-lasting
                                       networks with their diverse small group
                                       of other students from around the United
                                       States and world. Small groups will meet
                                       twice each day, after sessions, to talk
                                       about the content they are learning and
                                       to reflect on their experience, ensuring
                                       all students are understanding how to
                                       implement new skills learned.

LEAP Week prepares participants to work with different individuals, support each
other’s goals, and hone the skills crucial for success. Not to mention, these small
groups will create strong bonds and friendships that last a lifetime!
