“We really revamped the curriculum again to focus on some of the new needs in our community,” Lawrence said.
The cohort this year will talk more about supporting the increased population of Haitian immigrants in the community, with a presentation from the Clark County Combined Health District, Lawrence said.
There also will be a panel on housing development in Clark County as the community faces a variety of difficulties with housing, Lawrence said.
The two topics were added because they are chief community concerns, and Leadership Clark County likes to prepare its participants for current community needs.
Lawrence said in 2019, the cohort was focused on the opioid crisis and how to support the community. During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, it focused on how to get through that crisis. After, it focused on what changed in the community since the pandemic.
The participant list for the 2024-2025 LCC class has not yet been finalized.
