Along with an interactive monthly lesson and hands-on workshop at the sanctuary, students will participate in four service hours per month and get training in sanctuary responsibilities, animal care, gardening, rewilding the land, and more. They will also learn basic entrepreneurial skills and will practice public speaking and leadership by learning to effectively educate the community via tours, events, and educational presentations.

The LEAP program will run from October to June each school year, and students will have the opportunity to complete a year-end project and compete with other participants across the country for scholarship money.
