The Rotary Club of Brighton are currently seeking sponsorship candidates for the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) and we are interested in sponsoring you.
RYLA is a leadership program for young people aged 18 to 25, which focuses on personal growth, leadership development and community.
The RYLA Program aims to:
- Help you gain a better understanding of your own strengths, passions and values;
- Develop your leadership skills through experiential workshops, involving teamwork, communication, motivation and introspection;
- Foster an appreciation of the diverse abilities and unique qualities of other around you;
- Provide an opportunity for you and other young people to come together in a supportive environment;

RYLA usually runs as a week-long residential program in December, however, the COVID-19 pandemic prevented this from running in 2020. Instead, the program team has developed a brand new online program to run over 6 weeks from the 8th of February to the 21st March 2021. The new program will consist of four modules based around the themes of Challenge by Choice, Diversity, Community and Time Out.
Candidates who participate in the online program will also be welcome to apply for the residential program taking place in early December 2021.
Online Program Dates:
8 February - 21 March 2021
Costs:
The cost of this program is subsidised by Rotary sponsorship. The cost for you as the candidate will be $50 with the remaining $100 being paid by the sponsoring Rotary Club. If you are experiencing financial hardship whereby $50 will be a barrier, please discuss this with Jo Kwok, Rotary Club of Brighton Director of Youth or the RYLA committee, as the club may pay this on your behalf.

What can I expect from RYLA?
RYLA brings goal oriented, motivated individuals together to learn from each other. RYLA utilises speakers who are experts in their fields, who run experiential workshops designed to develop diverse leadership skills. Confidence, motivation and passion are all enhanced by RYLA and there is an emphasis on improving communication skills, introspection and emotional intelligence.
The online modules will consist of a combination of live interactive sessions and pre-recorded/written content that can be worked through at your own pace. You will be expected to allocate approximately two hours per week across the six weeks to work through the content. You will also have the opportunity to take part in optional engagement and support content during this time.
You will be challenged, and have the opportunity to put your leadership skills into action in practical applications throughout the program.
Who would benefit from RYLA?
Rotary and the RYLA team see leadership potential in young people from all backgrounds, not just those who have previously held leadership roles. If you are open to challenging yourself, we want to hear from you!
We encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, the LGBTIQ community, and people from culturally diverse backgrounds.
