2 FSW Grads Honored as WILMA's Future Leaders

As part of WILMA’s new Future Leaders initiative, which focuses on high school and middle school teens, they recently selected the 2022-2023 Future Leaders class. The group of sixteen 11th graders from schools throughout the region work with their mentors throughout the year, participate in the Future Leaders Fest, and attend Women to Watch Leadership Initiative events. Two of our very own FSW grads--Sophia Rouse and Dylan Schmidt (class of 2020) were part of the inaugural class. Read what leadership looks like and means to them in their own words.

Sophia Rouse: “A goal of mine is always to help others in need. My dream is to become a psychologist. One goal I have would be to deepen my understanding and explore my options on how I can help others through different types of therapy.”

Dylan Schmidt: “I have looked up to my mom, Jena Schmidt, as a leader, person, and friend for my entire life. She inspires me, and I continue to learn from her every day.”
