The Center for Progressive Leadership will be hosting an “info mixer”, hoping to connect with Alumni and any prospective program participants for both the Political Leaders Fellowship and the New Leaders Program. Invite your progressive friends!
This is a great program and network of people to know, learn from, and teach. Betsy Ujvagi, Vice-President and Carrie Russell, Treasurer, took part in the Political Leaders Fellowship and New Leaders Training, respectively, in 2010.
