Jim O’Brien, chairman of the Leadership Steering Committee, a program that fosters civic awareness in the community, is pleased to announce it is now accepting applications for the 2010 program.
The program’s steering committee seeks to identify inpiduals with distinctive leadership potential and enhance their knowledge of the area by exposing them to issues, opportunities and problems facing the greater Concord community. The inpiduals who are selected for the 2010 leadership class will begin work on the 10-month program in September, starting with a retreat and followed by a series of day-long work sessions from September through May and a graduation ceremony in June. Each session focuses on a particular aspect of civic life in Concord, including history and culture, environment and sustainability, economic development, education, communications and the media, government and politics, criminal justice, health and human services and spirituality.
The application deadline is May 15. For more information, contact Valerie Blake at 224-2508 or visit concordnhchamber.com to download an application.
