What is an Emerging Leader?

The Emerging Leaders are passionate advocates and changemakers within their school and community.  

They lead fundraising, advocacy, and awareness efforts to support those experiencing homelessness and play a vital role in creating hope, heart, and home for all.

At Sacred Heart Mission, we believe in the power of young voices. Through this program, students grow as leaders, work together, and take real action to end homelessness. 

Becoming an Emerging Student Leader allows students from our partner schools to connect with peers, develop leadership skills, and create positive community change.

Purpose & Responsibilities of an Emerging Leader

As an Emerging Leader, you will represent the values of Scared Heart Mission.
