YOUTH Leadership
Since its inception, in 1949, the Gamma Xi Omega Chapter has annually sponsored a Youth Leadership Program. This program has influenced the lives of many young ladies as they prepare themselves to enter society and has helped them to become confident and successful women in a global marketplace. In addition to focusing on higher order thinking and life skills, the program provides focus in the area of self-awareness, personal productivity, and success in higher education.
