Affiliates Program and Student Leadership The Cross-Cultural Center Affiliate Program provided direct support to over 100 student members from 18 Affiliated Student organizations, 6 of which are new this year. The CCC Affiliate Team provided direct support to student leaders through one to ones for goal planning and coaching, mixers, workshops, and trainings. Activities and events focused on providing opportunities for leadership development, career preparation, and skill-building, while also promoting collaboration and networking between different student organizations. New benefits included virtual drop-in office hours hosted by CCC staff, Affiliate highlights on Instagram stories, and an Affiliate group forum on Discord with over 50 members. Attendance at Affiliate events was particularly high this year, with a total of 136 participants across all events. The Leadership for Engagement and Advocacy Programs (LEAP) provided student leaders from affiliated student organizations with opportunities to meet with staff on goal planning and receive coaching on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) personality inventory and CliftonStrengths. LEAP was recognized on the Co-Curricular Record which provided the 5 enrolled students an opportunity to feature their involvement on their academic transcript.
