KENOSHA, WI— March 14, 2024— Leadership Kenosha is a professional development program that connects participants to community organizations, issues, and leaders, building their network while developing essential leadership skills. Through a series of monthly meetings, participants engage in leadership and community stewardship training by exploring segments of the Kenosha County community such as local government, law enforcement, human services, health care, education, business and economy, and nonprofit organizations.
