Youth Development Graduate Class

[Deborah Dawson]

Last summer I attended the Summer Leadership Institute at Clemson University entitled "Developmental Aspects of Youth:  Great Programs and How They Work, Effective Program Managment Techniques & Policy Development."  The Institute was developed as a graduate level course.  David Weatherford would be the person to contact for more information at dwthrfr at clemson.edu.
