The Alliance is happy to announce the 5th class of conservation superheroes has graduated from the Conservation Leadership Institute (CLI), a leadership development program at the Alliance.
Through this eight week program, graduates gained the skills and knowledge to organize, advocate, and hold local decision-makers accountable for building a better future for Jackson Hole. Additionally, each week featured a guest speaker who spoke on the weekly topic, ranging from local government and politics to the future of the conservation movement nationally.
To date, 77 people have graduated from the program, including 15 from this Fall 2015 class.
Look for these passionate and eager graduates to accomplish doing big things in our community in the near future:
