INTERNATIONAL STUDENT LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE…
Formulated at Notre Dame University by Rev. Thomas Chambers, the International Student Leadership Institute (ISLI) program is designed to identify and respond to the current needs of young people. It is open to all high school age young people who wish to learn about leadership and improve their already existing decision-making and problem solving skills.
To deal effectively with people is one of the most important skills a student will acquire. It is believed that leadership can be learned and will enhance a student’s education and life by improving his or her interpersonal relationships.
The facilitation of the ISLI Program is supported by the Bishop of Scranton,
the Most Reverend Joseph C. Bambera, who recently put forth his pastoral vision for the Church of Scranton … a vision focused on servant-leadership. The intent of our Diocesan supported ISLI program is to gather young people from across the eleven counties of the Diocese for a faith-filled experience that enhances leadership skills and promotes learning, sharing and prayer. Through the ISLI Program, the Diocese desires also to foster servant-leadership and to nurture the continued development of value-based, Christian decision-making.
ISLI is peer facilitated by individuals from the Diocese of Scranton, including extensively trained peer facilitators as well as adult input in the development of the following objectives:
Support through Group Process
Awareness through Communication
Self Confidence through Motivation
Positive Thinking through Change
Values through Leadership[/one_half_last]
