BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) – Twenty-five GEO Next Generation students are heading to New Orleans to experience Super Bowl-related events and leadership programs. 

The National Association of Police Athletic Leagues and the BRidge Agency chapter are partnering to give the students a rare experience. They will tour Xavier University, attend a School Leadership Symposium, and volunteer at the Player Networking Event.

Organizers say they hope the trip inspires the future of the participants.

“We’re giving back so that they can become successful and then they can give back and just keep it going. Keep paying it forward,” said Christopher Hill, CEO of National PAL.

They’ll return after two days of events and mentorship.
