G.O.L.D. (Growing Our Leadership Diversity) Program
Phi Alpha Delta Law Fraternity, International is pleased to announce that the G.O.L.D. (Growing Our Leadership Diversity) Program will continue for its second cycle during the 2023-2024 academic year. The goal of the G.O.L.D. Program is to identify members from diverse backgrounds willing to take on additional leadership roles in P.A.D. upon graduation from law school. The application period is now open through March 31, 2023.*

This program is a leadership development program with a mentoring component designed to provide P.A.D. law student members with the opportunity to:
  1. Build upon existing skills to become better leaders;
  2. Foster relationships with other leaders in P.A.D. through a formal mentoring program; and
  3. Benefit from a moderated leadership assessment to gain insight into personal and group management styles, identify strengths, and adapt to weaknesses.
Over the course of the program - beginning in August 2023 and ending in May 2024 - law students will attend virtual and in-person leadership programming events, meet with their mentor regularly, and participate in a group development/service project.
