Baton Rouge, LA - In May, the Southern University
Ag Center launched a series of classes for Faith-Based Leaders in New Roads, Pointe Coupee Parish,
through its Building Opportunities Leadership Development (BOLD) program. Classes
were held every Saturday for six weeks, with the goal of enhancing and
strengthening faith-based leaders to better equip them in serving their
institutions and communities.
On
June 29, the BOLD for Faith-Based leaders held
its completion ceremony in New Roads, for seven participants who successfully
completed the class curriculum. The classes were taught by Dana D. Isaac, Grant
Assistant.
BOLD is a statewide grassroots leadership
development project under the direction of Dr. Kenyetta Nelson-Smith, assistant
specialist for community and economic development. BOLD for Faith-Based Leaders
is an extension of the BOLD project, focused solely on faith-based
institutions, ultimately benefitting individuals and families in the faith
communities that participants lead.
For
