As Southeast Kansas, Inc. staff has traveled throughout the region, we have asked our audiences a series of questions. Through these question and answer sessions one issue continued to come up - the need for community leaders.  To address this need, a partnership was formed between SEK, Inc. and the Southeast Kansas Prosperity Foundation in cooperation with the Kansas Health Foundation.  The Regional Leadership Academy was formed. The program is not intended to replace local leadership programs, but to enhance and serve the following purposes:

• Build on local leadership programs

• Take leadership training to the next level

• Provide leadership training for residents whose communities may not have a leadership program

• Build skills in individuals who have leadership thoughts or a desire to serve

An application (Word format) can be found here.  The application must be filed by July 15th.
