Leading Change - Youth Leadership
The VOYPIC Youth Leadership Programme, Leading Change, is a regional project open to care-experienced young people, aged 14 years old and over, from across Northern Ireland.
Taking part in the programme, young people will get specially designed leadership training, leading to a qualification accredited by OCN. The programme aims to develop young people’s leadership skills, improving their self-awareness, confidence, and self-esteem.
What Young Leaders do
Young leaders take on leading roles within VOYPIC and their local communities. Once trained, they design and deliver VOYPIC’s peer-led training programme, raising awareness of their experiences and the issues facing care-experienced young people, and engage directly with local decision makers to influence the decisions that affect them.
