CPL leaders represent the best and brightest
up-and-coming leaders across the country. We areexcited to announce our 2009 CPL Political Leaders Fellows:
From veteran organizers to first-time volunteers,
they include doctors, lawyers, teachers, college
students, and more. Whatever their political
experience, race, gender, or background, they
are all passionate about one thing: becoming
powerful progressive leaders.
In all of our programs, CPL is committed to
developing a generation of future leaders that
reflects the diversity of our nation's communities.
To that end, we recruit heavily from minority
communities for every one of our programs.
Each trainee works with experts, seasoned professionals, elected officials, and trainers to develop their personal leadership skills in each of CPL’s programs.
You can also see the profiles of all our leaders here :
Our programs focus on political skills like running for office, managing organizations
and campaigns, fundraising and delivering a
compelling message; however, the program also
focuses on personal development like
becoming a better speaker, expanding your personal
fundraising base, leading from your own values,
and more.
In addition, trainees have the opportunity
to meet and work with some of the top political
and organizational leaders from across the
state.
