- Love

We are open to continuing to build partnerships with any organizations or members of our communities interested in this essential endeavor.
Youth Leadership Academy: Los adolescentes y su ruta al liderazgo
Dorenex has launched a major initiative to develop the Hispanic leaders of tomorrow through mentoring and professional development via our Leadership Academy series.
Young participants are developing personal, professional and community leadership abilities such as public speaking skills, theatrical skills, journalistic skills, debate, and management skills. Through this program they receive mentoring from community leaders. Top achievers of the program have the opportunity to grow a promising leadership career in our organizations and in partner organizations, as well as invitations to participate in local, national, and international conference or forums.
Congratulations to all our Leadership Academy students who successfully completed cycles of the Academy!
We are so proud of you all and wish you the best in your future endeavors.
