Current Collective Action Initiative
Quorum St. Joseph launched a week-long Madam President Camp for girls ages eleven to thirteen in 2023. With an initial enrollment of 24 attendees, we have a goal of growing it to over 100 attendees every summer. The girls interact with seasoned professionals and follow a leadership development program that helps them build confidence, understand their innate skills as leaders, engage in discussions around civic responsibility and support each other. With the help of many, we are building the next generation of leaders for our community. To learn more about Madam President Camp, check out their website.
