Young Women Leaders

On August 21, 2024 at the Morgan Hill Community Park, the Young Women Leaders had their first social for 2024-2025 year.  The young ladies were excited to reconnect after their summer vacation. We shared food and stories about our summer and talked about the coming year.

On September 9th we had our first actual YWL meeting. We were so encouraged by the attendance of 19 girls: some returning and a few new members. Also in attendance were two guest speakers, Brittney Ortega from the Peace Corps and Briell Delisle, who attended the AAUW National Conference for College Women Student Leaders on a branch scholarship. They spoke to our members about how to get involved in the two agencies.

Our YWL co-leaders, Sofia Ruiz-McGinty and Kaysie Leong, led the group in ice-breakers and discussions about the plans and goals for the YWL year. Our next meeting on October 14th focused on the organization of the leadership conference to be held in the spring.
