L.E.A.D. Learn Engage Advance Duluth

The 15th Annual L.E.A.D. (Learn, Engage, Advance Duluth) Academy will begin on February 21. The program runs for six (6) weeks and consists of five (5) Wednesday night sessions, and one Monday night session, which will be a regularly scheduled Council Work Session and Council Meeting. A graduation celebration will be held in the final week. To participate in this FREE program, you must be a City resident or business owner.

The 2024 program will again provide a more in-depth look into City operations and the City budget (there will be no separate Citizens Budget Review Committee). So, if the city budget is of interest to you, please sign up for the L.E.A.D. Academy. Click HERE for the 2024 schedule and more information.

The City of Duluth is an ideal suburban environment that offers a great place to live, work and play. We are excited to offer an avenue for citizens to become knowledgeable about city operations, services, and the overall essential functions of city government. This will be accomplished by offering an interactive learning experience, which will include information about city services, programs and responsibilities. Additionally, citizens will casually interact with elected officials and city staff. Class participants will be afforded the opportunity to ask questions and gain a better understanding of Duluth government and their role in local government.

Citizens engage when they are armed with good information and L.E.A.D. provides that foundation. You will be empowered to help address community issues when you understand all the possible ways you can help. This program will spark your interest in local issues, provide insight into the decision-making process and provide an avenue for participants to help advance the community to a better future.
