The City of Casa Grande is looking for 25 members for its upcoming 2018 Leadership Academy, a free eight-week training opportunity that will mark its 15th anniversary in 2018.
The academy, which will run from Jan. 25 through March 15, helps citizens learn how their local government operates. Each week, members of the academy get a behind the scenes look at the work done to keep the City of Casa Grande running through presentations and tours.
A focus is on a specific department or city operation each Thursday evening when the group meets. City department directors and elected officials help academy members learn about each department’s role.
Participation in the Leadership Academy is limited to 25 participants and applicants must be at least 18 and a resident of Casa Grande. Applications will be accepted until Dec. 30. Visit https://casagrandeaz.gov/city-manager/leadership-academy/ for more information or to register. Interested residents can also contact Kayla Fulmer at 520-421-8627 or at kayla_fulmer@casagrandeaz.gov
The Leadership Academy is a partnership of the City of Casa Grande and the Arizona Public Service Co.
