We have been welcoming emerging and existing leaders for the past 28 years. We are now building Elevate – Class 29!
Our flagship program cultivates emerging and existing community leaders and builds leadership skills in participants and networking with community leaders to be a value-add to their organization and to the county as a whole.
About Elevate

- Build group cohesion in a 1-day mandatory introductory retreat.
- Attend one 6 ½ hour meeting per month.
- Meet in classes held in locations across Marshall County.
- Integrate Leadership Skills sessions with Networking with Community Leaders.

- Focus on learning about Self, Others, and the Marshall County Community.
- Complete a community improvement project in small groups.
- Identify individual leadership challenges and create a call to action to enhance skill sets.
