Training tomorrow's leaders: CDBF announces AAPI Emerging Leaders Program

The Colorado Dragon Boat Festival is proud to announce the AAPI Emerging Leaders Program, which will focus on training the best and brightest young people within our communities to be effective leaders of the future.

Over the years numerous Asian American Pacific Islander community organizations have expressed the need for culturally sensitive leadership programs dedicated to train AAPI youth and young adults.

CDBF convened a series of meetings with AAPI community leaders and determined that a leadership program specifically tailored for the 18-25 year old population is needed. The program is necessary to ensure that the AAPI young adults become powerful, productive, and effective community and business leaders. The training consists of three full-day training sessions to be held Jan. 21, Feb. 25 and March 24, 2012. Deadline to submit applications is October 28, 2011.
