Obama Foundation 2019 Community Leadership Corps Reception

In June, 100 young people in Hartford between the ages of 18-25, many of them UConn students or alumni, were chosen to participate in the Obama Foundation’s Community Leadership Corps. For the next 6 months,
they would be tasked with a community challenge to address with support from Obama Foundation success coaches. As a community partner, UConn Hartford participated in regular feedback sessions between the young, emerging leaders and community stakeholders. In November, the program concluded with a reception, where it was revealed that the program will continue in Hartford for another year. UConn Hartford is enthused that the CLC will continue to develop the leadership in our city and is proud of the UConn students and alumni who have been chosen for the honor. Go Hartford! Go Huskies!
