Jacklyn Leybovich will present her Global Competency Program capstone project, “Veteran Homelessness Through a Global Lens,” during ACES on Monday, April 8, in room 2301.
The Global Competency Program is a two-year independent study in which students immerse themselves in another culture through travel; research; language; and community service. Students who complete the program earn recognition on their high school transcript as well as a certificate at graduation.
Leybovich, an 11th grade student, focused her research upon the housing struggles that soldiers face after completing military service; she also examined the various supports provided to veterans in the United States and beyond. Dr. Shawn Kenner served as her faculty mentor.
For more information about this event or about the GCP program, please contact Ms. Lori Ayotte, facilitator, in room 2406.
