Teen Leadership Board Positions 2026–2027

Each leadership position is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact on Friendship Circle and our community.

More than one person may hold the same position and work together throughout the year.

Each member is expected to be active in their position at least once a month. Leah will meet with each Chair individually to explain the role, help you create a plan, and support you in bringing your ideas to life.

Choose a position that matches your interests, strengths, and the difference you'd like to make this year!
