Community Health Leadership Academy
The Community Health Leadership Academy is jointly sponsored by the Phoenixville Community Health Foundation and the Pennsylvania Association of Nonprofit Organizations [PANO].
The mission is to provide a vehicle to identify, train and empower greater Phoenixville area citizens for leadership roles that promote our community's health and advance its quality of life.
Academy objectives are:
- To identify, train, motivate and develop grass-roots community leaders;
- To give program participants a deeper understanding about their community – its assets, strengths, challenges and needs;
- To develop leadership skills that will enable participants to affect change in the community.
The Community Health Leadership Academy accepts a maximum of fifteen (15) students annually to participate in a curriculum of eleven (11), 2 ½-hour, classroom-based learning sessions. The curriculum also incorporates an individual community project completed by each participating student. A stipend of $500 is available to each student successfully graduating from the Academy, to assist with the completion of this project.
