Leadership Denver is a 36-year-old program that develops community leaders and enhances the civic infrastructure of the Denver Metro region. This 11-month program brings together approximately 55 diverse leaders representative of the community--the for-profit, nonprofit and government sectors. Partial scholarships enable participation by those individuals who need financial assistance in order to pay the program tuition. These scholarships are critical to Leadership Denver's commitment to class diversity and representative community leadership.
