To assist the sisters in becoming independent life-long learners and local leaders, an alumni association was formed with the participants from Phase I of the SLDI program. The goal of providing continuing support is to reinforce the growth of self-esteem and leadership competencies experienced through participation in the pilot program.

The proposed project includes a one-day workshop that will enhance leadership skills, identify challenges, and discuss solutions.
