Community Impact Projects

 
Leadership Anchorage Community Impact Projects 3

Since its founding in 1997, Leadership Anchorage participants have connected with a wide range of organizations and community champions to meet real needs. Each year, community organizations pitch concepts to the cohort and the cohort selects the projects they want to work on in teams of up to 5 people over the course of the program. In 2024, 16 proposals were submitted and the Cohort selected six. 

The six selected by LA 28 were:

Creating a Funding Database - Alaska Small Business Development Center

Diversifying Firefighter Recruitment - Anchorage Fire Department

Establishing a Childcare Cooperative - Anchorage Childcare Cooperative

Developing Culturally Responsive Curriculum - Pacific Community of Alaska

Analyzing Building Usage Needs - Stone Soup Group

Making Anchorage a Music City - Alaska Creative Economies
