Registration Open For Youth, Adult MAP Leadership Academy

MONROVIA, CA — Registration is now open for the Monrovia Area Partnership (MAP) Leadership Academy, the City announced last week. MAP is a community program that hosts events and meetings to train and connect community members dedicated to improving Monrovia.

The Adult Leadership Academy is on Thursdays from Sept. 12 to Oct. 24, from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Library Community Room.

"MAP is a city program facilitated by Neighborhood Services Staff. One major goal of the MAP Program is to encourage residents' involvement in their neighborhood and in the community," the City of Monrovia press release said. "Through the MAP Leadership Academy, we train residents to recognize and utilize city resources; provide leadership skills; and encouragement to become engaged in the community."

RSVP for the Adult Leadership Academy here.

The Youth Leadership Academy is on Wednesdays from Sept. 11 to Oct. 23 from 3 to 5 p.m. in the Library Community Room.

"The MAP Youth Leadership Academy is similar to the Adult Academy but is designed for middle and high school aged youth. The Academy’s goals are to assist the youth in learning, developing and growing," the City said. "We start by exploring with them how they themselves are leaders (even if they don’t know it yet!); then they are given examples of how others use their skills to make a difference. After learning from others, they learn how we work together as a community and ends with putting all that they learn into action."

RSVP for the Youth Leadership Academy here.
