Leadership Thurston County is a ten-month, local leadership development program.

Each year’s class consists of 20-30 participants who come from a variety of occupations and backgrounds.

The program begins in September and ends in June. It includes opening and closing retreats, monthly day-long sessions called Challenge Days, and individual projects that are completed outside of class time.

The curriculum is carefully designed to reflect the interrelationships of issues and to develop knowledge of community leadership.

Topics are explored through speakers, discussion groups, panels, field visits and homework. Participants gain insight into how community decisions are made, who makes them and what influences these decisions.
