2026 NEW! (STRUCTURE, LESSONS, PROGRAM DATE AND TIMES)

The Eryn PiNK Middle School Leadership Program is a dynamic leadership development academy designed to empower middle school girls with the skills, values, and mindset needed to become confident and effective leaders. Through interactive workshops, reflective activities, and hands-on exercises, participants will explore their personal strengths, develop a strong sense of core values, and learn to navigate leadership challenges with integrity and confidence.

Program Delivery Structure: Eryn PiNK Middle School Leadership Program

The Eryn PiNK Middle School Leadership Program is delivered in two distinct seasonal cohorts, providing flexibility for students to engage based on availability, while also allowing for deeper learning and multi-year participation. Each cohort requires a new registration each season. Each cohort builds on the program’s core values of identity, confidence, and leadership, offering intentional space for middle school girls to grow, reflect, and lead.

  • Social-Emotional Learning — recognizing emotions, practicing self-regulation, demonstrating empathy, and making responsible decisions.
  • Interpersonal & Communication Skills — learning to communicate effectively, establish healthy boundaries, collaborate, and navigate peer relationships.
  • Conflict Resolution — developing strategies to manage disagreements, problem-solve, and respond constructively to conflict.
  • Personal Leadership & Agency — strengthening accountability, decision-making, goal setting, and ownership of personal growth.
  • STEM & Career Exploration — building curiosity, problem-solving, and exposure to mechanical engineering and STEM career pathways.
