Emerging Leaders’ Institute for Training and Excellence (ELITE)

Emerging Leaders’ Institute for Training and Excellence (ELITE)

ELITE is a great opportunity for Community Action staff looking to grow their understanding of, and leadership in, Community Action. From Community Action’s rich history to the role we play in performance management and advocacy. ELITE covers key modules of core content with lots of peer-to-peer learning and engagement. There is a five month commitment and participants meet approximately monthly via on-line Zoom meetings.

The 2025 application packet is available here (including class dates). Applications are due January 10th. 

"ELITE is a great learning experience for anyone in Community Action. It allows participants to understand the ins and outs of Community Action, as well as connect with other Community Action Agencies. I would recommend ELITE to anyone in Community Action that is wanting to grow and develop in their profession."
