Growing Community Leaders

Believing that strong leadership is critical to healthy communities, the Center for Community Leadership announces a series of programs designed to train community-minded individuals.

According to an excerpt from WZZM13:

'Center for Community Leadership is holding three programs to enhance community leaders: "Leadership Grand Rapids," "Inside Grand Rapids," and "Emerging Leaders."

"With the variety of programs and experiences and by connecting to other individuals who have that same passion," says Kevin Stotts, Vice President of Community Leadership. "We really think it helps to keep people here and attract people here because it really has been about decades of outstanding community leadership that has gotten this community to this point in time."

"Leadership Grand Rapids" is a nine-month commitment to enhance one's role as a community trustee.
The program will examine public safety, social services, quality education, philanthropy as well as many more important topics.
