Mosaic Life Care Foundation to begin high school leadership program

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (KQTV) -- The Mosaic Life Care Foundation announced it is set to begin its emPowerU e2 Fellowship.

The e2 Fellowship is a high school intergenerational leadership program that meets four times throughout the academic year.

This year, emPowerU is welcoming 13 regional schools. The program hosts teams of three: two high school students and one adult sponsor in the Foundation's 31-county service region.

The challenge-based program enhances the skills of emerging and experienced leaders. It is designed to deepen the commitment to education and develop skills necessary for creating healthy and thriving communities.

The leadership journey aims to challenge influences, identify core values and begin the expedition where youth are the creators of the Northwest Missouri region's future.

The Foundation's Board of Trustees has approved funding to make the e2 Fellowship program free of charge this year.
