Leaders In Erie needed.

(I got an email from Tina Mengine who now is involved with a non-political group that tries to recruite leaders in communities. Not surprising she says, nobody in Erie has stepped up to the plate. Here is her message. She can send anyone interested more info.)

Dear Media Partners, Educators, Political Leaders and Friends:

An important program for emerging political leaders is currently recruiting in this area. This program, run by the Center for Progressive Leadership, has never reached out to the Erie region before. Thus far they have had little luck in recruitment from this area. I encourage all of you to spread the word about the program and the impending deadline, just days away, September 15, 2006.

Details on the program are below and attached.

The Fellowship is a part-time, 9-month leadership development program for both promising future candidates and non-candidate political leaders. During the 9-month program, each Fellow attends a series of trainings focused on providing them with the tools, resources, and knowledge to become an effective leader, organizer, or candidate in their community. As CPL Fellows, these leaders receive ongoing support and mentorship to support their launch into political prominence.
