Leadership Academy
Leadership Academy
GreenStairs Leadership Academy was founded over 25 years ago with a simple but powerful belief:
that Muslims – teenagers and adults – deserve a space to grow into confident, principled leaders who use common sense, context, critical judgement and who accountable to God for all that they do
AND
who know why they need to know the meaning of what they say in prayer and then learn it
“Every one of you is a shepherd, and every one of you is responsible for his flock.”
We try to equip Muslim teenagers with the skills, values, and confidence to lead — in their homes, schools, communities, and eventually the broader world.
GISLA or GreenStairs is a community of young people who challenge one another, hold one another accountable, and rise together — step by step.
