New educational program for youngsters

HAEi LEAP is a new educational program launched in October 2022. The program, which is developed by HAEi, allows young people to learn new skills and develop as individuals, and advocates.

Young people will also have the chance to gain experience working with their MOs to apply all those skills on a project to support advocacy, their member organization, and their community. Paving the way for future leaders.

Who is LEAP for?

HAEi LEAP starts with a 2-day in-person seminar, followed by a 12-week program of online and virtual learning and it’s for youngsters in the HAE community. They could be:

someone with HAE – a caregiver or a family member
aged between 16 and 25
a member of your organization (of course!)
and able to travel on their own

What should I start thinking about?

Young people and their member organizations need to apply for the program together. You should start thinking about a project that the young person could work on. We will ask for a few details about your project idea in the application form.

After graduation, you will have the chance to put your new skills into practice by working on the project with your member organization. And, to help you deliver the project, HAEi will provide a one-time monetary grant to HAEi LEAP graduate Member Organizations.
