A wonderful winter with Disney Programs: Event recap

This year has already been packed with exciting events for Disney Programs participants! Let’s look back at some of the fun offerings we’ve held over the last few months.

In a new highly interactive session, Improv for Improvement, participants learned to boost their confidence, improve their public speaking and strengthen their critical thinking skills in a fun way!
