The Leadership Institute

The Leadership Institute offers grassroots leaders and activists, community-based organizations and government officials, a space to sharpen their critical thinking and develop a collective vision on an array of issues including city planning, economic development, environmental justice, public transportation and civic participation. The Leadership Institute roots group discussion and analysis within each individual’s personal experience because often times participants are already experts or personally impacted by the issues discussed and the information shared in these sessions. By bridging the gap between theory and practice, the Institute aims to promote a reflective process which leads to more effective and powerful forms of information sharing, community engagement and activism.
