Representation matters.
We need leaders like you at decision-making tables whose perspectives and voices reflect the lived experiences of their constituents. It is all too common that our communities are represented by individuals who don’t understand the strengths, challenges, or needs of marginalized peoples across the country.
For years, LEE has helped hundreds of people like yourself – sometimes filled with many doubts or facing significant barriers – envision themselves creating positive impact in elected office. Through this program, we seek to leverage our collective voices and leadership to ensure that our communities are represented, championed, and honored.
This year’s cohort is specifically for members of color. We’ll offer identity-specific spaces, where we will offer the standard PLP program with extra emphasis on what it means to be a leader of color and how to navigate that. You’ll do this in an intentional and safe space with other members of similar backgrounds and identities.
Let’s create a more reflective democracy and, together, end inequity in our country.
