AOP is now recruiting for the Grassroots Leadership Development (GLD) Program Class of 2013. GLD is a leadership training program that helps people become better, more effective leaders in their communities. Once a month from January until May, participants meet for trainings. They practice what they've learned in applied tasks, building a portfolio of their work. Participants come from across the state, representing diverse communities, backgrounds, interests, and abilities. GLD brings them together for training that is designed to enhance their existing skills, teach new skills and facilitate constructive work for change in communities and organizations back home. Applications are available on the website.
