Each STAMP programs builds on each other
Through an identity based leadership journey, this scaffolding guides students to develop a multifaceted understanding of their leadership and how to spark positive change in their communities.
STAMP Leader's Journey
Students who take part in STAMP learn how to take action and make progress rooted in practices of self & community care, healing, and wellness.
Starting at STAMP Conference
The STAMP Conference is often the entry point for middle school students into our programs. This experience introduces 7th and 8th graders to conversations led by near-peers, H.S. STAMP Leaders, around issues of social justice and community building.
Participating in STAMP Camps
The STAMP camps give incoming 9th grade students through graduating high school leaders an opportunity to engage more deeply in culturally responsive dialogue, personal development, and transformational leadership.
Taking Lead at the STAMP Conference
Become a STAMP Conference leader, where you lead a day-long diversity conference and facilitate workshops for middle school student attendees.
