Leadership Connections | Statewide Gatherings

3/12/2024

While ALP convenes our members regularly through Zoom and annually at the National Conference, we recognize the value of gathering in person with colleagues who do the work you do in your community. For several years, ALP members and leaders of Community Leadership Programs in several states have gathered for day-long statewide or regional meetings to move forward their work together.

Interested in coming together with fellow Community Leadership Programs in your state or region to plan a gathering? Want to be the catalyst to bring a gathering like this to your area?

Hear from three leaders who've done this in their state or region:

Stephanie Brackman, Leadership Rutherford, TN and Immediate Past Chair - Tennessee Association of Community Leadership
Amy Jennings, Lead DSM, Des Moines, IA
Amanda Bowen, Leadership Edmond, OK
