Leadership DeKalb is now accepting applications for the Leadership DeKalb Class of 2012 that will begin next fall. Upon successful completion of the 10-month program, you may become an active member of Leadership DeKalb, a non-partisan not-for-profit organization that has fostered networking and connections among its 950 distinguished graduates to positively impact DeKalb County for 25 years.
