Leadership Fellows Association

Fellows join the Leadership Fellows Association (LFA) at the conclusion of their Program Year. The LFA provides access to educational and networking opportunities to help Fellows advance their civic goals. 

Since 1992, the LFA has served as the connection and education arm of Leadership Greater Chicago. LFA supports Fellows in maintaining up-to-date awareness of key community issues, helps Fellows stay connected with each other and to the organization, promotes cross-class networking and collaboration, and inspires community leadership long after Fellows have completed their Program Years.

The mission of the Leadership Fellows Association is to:

• Provide a forum for Fellows to continue their education on issues of importance to the Greater Chicago region; build relationships among members; and implement programs and information/education initiatives of interest to members;
• Encourage members to support, both financially and otherwise, all the programs of Leadership Greater Chicago;
• Keep Fellows apprised of members’ activities; and,
• Keep members informed of the activities of the Fellows Program.
