What is a chapter?
Establishing a chapter within an organization means establishing a localized branch that functions in accordance to the mission and objectives of the larger organization. This allows individual students or groups to focus on a specific area.
A chapter within our organization presents high school students with an opportunity to ignite change and foster community engagement. Starting a chapter gives students the power to take real action, whether they are motivated by a desire to make a positive effect in school by forming a club or by working with their friends outside of school boundaries.
