Is This Leadership Experience?

So, how do I choose between the two. Do I go for the one that I want and is more important to me personally 'n have a passion for or do I go for the one that "looks good" on my resume? I'm thinking maybe w/ the first one there will somehow maybe have a door opened for me to step into a leadership position over time. There is this mentoring program that I would like to start (who knows when it will start I'm still a student & I haven't even told anybody about it) but it's for counseling adolescents who have been or are in juvenile detention center and providing them w/ resources, emotional support, advocacy, etc. on their lifestyle outside of the detention center. I think this is SO important because most adolescents return to jail after a few months, a year, or so. These adolescents that I will be working w/ (at least to my knowledge) haven't been in jail. They are just on the brink of dropping out of school or are suffering in their academics & probably other stuff too.

Wow talk about being very honest & upfront, a little too harsh though. You know there are countless of threads posted w/ people going off topic.
