Leadership learns about health and social services
 | | Leadership Work Day |
The April Leadership Clackamas County and Clackamas County Young Leaders' Project class was an intense day all about learning more about how social issues and health affect everyone in one way or another. Whether it is domestic violence, sexual assault, mental illness, homelessness, hunger, or the aging, it is important to understand the history behind each. In order to truly understand and become more engaged leaders in the community, education and personal involvement are key factors in every service provided to the less fortunate.

Voting "Yes" for safety and economic vitality
