Partnership: Last year, all four LinkingLeaders partner organizations CAAL, AALF, LatinoLEAD, and Tiwahewelcomed four Managing Directors to help lead and strengthen our collective work. This strategic growth has significantly enhanced our capacity to build deeper, more meaningful relationships across our communities.This expansion also paved the way for a major milestone: the launch of our first-ever Cross-Racial Solidarity workshop. This event marked a powerful step forward in our shared commitment to advancing cross-cultural, racial, and ethnic engagement and solidarity. We are now poised to move beyond internal practices and relationships, bringing LinkingLeaders into new faces and spacesuplifting real-world examples of how community organizations like ours can support the spirit of solidarity.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2024 – Dec 31, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$165.8KCAAL Policy Advocacy
