The innovative new program is designed for high-achieving juniors, who want to learn about the complexity of the needs facing leaders in Church and other faith-based organizations.</span> <p> <span>The program is an opportunity for students to gain practical leadership experience within a faith-based organization through an internship mentored by one of the organization&#8217;s leaders.</span> </p> <p> <span>&#8220;The great thing about this program is that the students get to meet and work exclusively with faith-based organizations,&#8221; said David Leslie, executive director of Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon and a current mentor in the program. &#8220;The students will get to work on a project during their internship, so they can see the lasting contributions they have made on each organization.&#8221;</span> </p> <p> <span>In additiohttp://www.up.edu/shownews.aspx?id=4794http://www.up.edu/shownews.aspx?id=4794Fri, 22 Mar 2013 00:00:00 -0700
