The C.H.O.I.C.E.S. Leadership Development Series provides a sixteen week, two-hour per session training series that focuses on academic and personal stumbling blocks, leadership development, conflict resolution, effective communication skills, self esteem, team building, male/female relationships, decision making, goal setting skills, and more. Each class session is designed so participants can experience and demonstrate their skills either individually, or in team projects. Classes incorporate a dynamic multimedia approach utilizing video, music, speakers, and/or panel discussions.

An important aspect of the Leadership Development Series is to instill new confidence and encourage participants to get involved in their community by volunteering with appropriate organizations or agencies, including helping coordinate ongoing C.H.O.I.C.E.S. program activities. This also allows the C.H.O.I.C.E.S. Youth Outreach Program to become a self-perpetuating, grass roots initiative that continue to be involved with its graduates.

Students in the Leadership Development Series will be required to develop an Individuallized Educational and Career Action Plan.
