LEADERSHIP RETREAT

Each year, the  Arise Program takes a group of 20 to 30 students on a journey of self-discovery & self-empowerment while exploring dorm-life on a university campus. Over the course of 3-days & 2-nights, students engage with Mt. SAC faculty, staff, & their peers through daily workshops & team-building exercises. Participating students will leave with tangible skills to assist them in their personal development. All transportation, meals, & accommodations are provided.
