41 new students begin nine-month, community-based leadership training
Forty-one Fox Cities area professionals are participating in the 2022-2023 Leadership Fox Cities program through the Fox Cities Chamber.
Since 1991, this Chamber program has shaped community leaders with immersive educational experiences and engagements. Starting next month, participants will gather monthly for day-long educational sessions in the community focused on topics including business, education, government and media, human services, health and wellness, law enforcement, environment, and the arts. A kickoff retreat was held in September.
In addition to attending educational sessions, small groups within Leadership Fox Cities will also complete hands-on community projects during the session. Graduation will be held in May 2023.
