Coro’s Immigrant Civic Leadership Program (ICLP) enhances the capacity of leaders working to strengthen immigrant communities. Participants explore strategies for shaping public policies that affect NYC as a whole and immigrant communities in particular. ICLP also challenges participants to examine their individual approaches to leadership in order to build and sustain their organizational and personal visions for change.

The Immigrant Civic Leadership Program is generously supported by The American Express Foundation, Con Edison, Western Union Foundation, and other contributors.

Program participants:

• Gain an insider’s view of how NYC works
• Interact with leaders from across sectors
• Learn strategies that shape effective public policy
• Cultivate leadership skills
• Build lasting relationships and learn from other leaders

Participants in this intense part-time, six-month program develop advanced strategies and skills for expanding opportunities for immigrants and for shaping public policy decisions that affect immigrant communities and NYC. From June to November, upt to 26 participants also examine their own approaches to operating as leaders and engines of change.
