Compassionate Leaders Program 2026-2027

From October-May, Compassionate Leaders participate in weekly meetings and community engagement that build the skill of attention and a foundation of interconnectedness, generosity, and compassion for the world. These skills are refined through embodied activities, peer-to-peer conversation, invitations into introspection, and mindfulness practices that strengthen human connection. Each year the core curriculum alternates between the exploration of genuine happiness and secular ethics. This program allows students to go beyond the familiar question, “What do you want to do?” and invites them to consider, “How do you want to be?" 

You can learn more about this program by visiting our website.

We believe there should be no financial barriers for students to explore a more compassionate way of being in the world and we aspire to ensure that we are able to maintain a vital program to serve this community for a long time! To balance these desires we invite you to contribute to the longevity of this program by making a donation. 

Our tiered-based structure allows every student and family to reflect on the value you will receive from being involved in the program alongside your current financial capacity to invest in the program. If making a monetary contribution is not feasible for you at this time please know that this does not restrict participation.

Please note parent/guardian details for payment and then include the participating youth's name in the designated section.
