Do you aspire to be a leader amongst your peers but haven't had the chance to develop your leadership skills? The Michael A. Figures Leadership Experience is looking for students like you. Based on the values exhibited by Senator Michael A. Figures, who emerged as a leader in Alabama during the civil rights era, this three-day series of intensive instruction in leadership skills will help you seek and develop the leader within yourself. If you are a middle-school student who has completed the eighth grade, headed to ninth grade and in good standing at your school, this program could be for you.
