Class 6 (1993-1995)
As a graduate of LeadAR Class 6 I have been privileged to meet
other LeadAR participants and network with them across the state.
The individuals, businesses and agencies who participate in the
training programs also realize what an effective program this is and
are eager to assist when asked. This has been a great catalyst for
my work within the community as well as in my work with DHS. Through
LeadAR trainings and development programs I have improved my ability
to organize and motivate others as well as actively participate in
community organizations. I have gained skills to be not only a
leader but a follower in order to improve our community and the
opportunities for our residents; to improve lives, provide education
and to work with the youth to make their lives more meaningful. I
have realized what an opportunity it has been to be a member of the
LeadAR family. LeadAR graduates are family and they are there when
you need them, personally and professionally.

Being a part of LeadAR, brought into my life a wide range of
people and careers. It brought Arkansas closer because our class
became one big family. Everyone had different opinions and we all
taught one another. LeadAR gave me some of my best friends and a
network of resources. It was one thing in my life I wish could have
continued forever.

LeadAR is the program that "keeps on giving!"
Besides the wonderful friends that become your extended family
and resources when you need them, your community continues to
benefit from your project. LeadAR has enabled be to provide 218
youth with leadership skills they can now use to give back to their
communities.

LeadAR put me in a position to experience people and places and
participate in activities that I would never have ordinarily done in
my life. What a great program!
