NEW ORLEANS — The Young Leadership Council is seeking nominations for its 2023 Role Model Awards — and applications to join its board of directors.
The YLC is a “nonprofit, nonpartisan, civic organization that develops young professionals into leaders through community projects. It is composed of early- to mid-career adults (ages 21-42) interested in developing their leadership skills while bettering their community.” The organization provides leadership training and hands-on experience in volunteer-led community projects.
“The skills and lessons I’ve learned as a board member are invaluable, and this year I am excited to be in a leadership role for the Role Model program,” said board member and Role Model Awards Co-Chair Olivia Mertensmeyer in a press release. “The Role Models are individuals that we, as young leaders, can inspire to become, and YLC helps us become them for the next generation. Become a board member this year, and be a role model in the future.”
