Mission/Description: : Leadership Anne Arundel (LAA) is a non-profit leadership development organization whose mission is
to provide people of diverse backgrounds with the education, resources, and networks necessary to become successful,
proactive leaders. The vision of Leadership Anne Arundel is to develop and nurture current and future leaders to become
community trustees who improve the quality of life in Anne Arundel County by convening diverse stakeholders, bridging their
divides, and facilitating resolutions for the common good. It accomplishes this through its yearly classes- Flagship, Executive,
and Neighborhood.
Service-learning opportunities: Leadership Anne Arundel strives to maintain an active and engaged graduate organization,
commonly called LAA Alumni. Programs and networking opportunities for LAA program graduates are provided throughout the
year. Unfortunately as graduates change jobs or move, many do not notify LAA of their changes and contact with them is lost.
This effort is to help LAA reconnect with the many graduates from the programs where contact has been lost. It involves
researching publicly available resources and information contained within the LAA records to help locate and provide accurate
contact information for these graduates. This provides students with an opportunity to network with the LAA community while
providing a valuable service. Skills required include Internet research, communication and attention to detail.
Multiple, can divide graduate information according to number of students participating.
