(OHCE).

  16. LDCE Grants • LDCE grants are to provide seed money for emerging leaders to develop and refine leadership skills through training or working on a project for the community, neighborhood or county. • The proposed project or training must foster leadership development and citizen involvement. • Emerging leaders learn about leadership when they test and practice their skills by working on a project or participating in leadership development training that results in personal or community improvement.

  17. LDCE Grants Criteria to consider: • Significance of need for leadership development—this need should be clearly described in the proposal • Evidence of how emerging leaders will increase and/or enhance their leadership skills • Evidence of collaboration among individuals or groups (i.e., school, 4-H, volunteer, and/or professional groups) • Projected impact of leadership training and/or project

  18. LDCE Grants Each project proposal should clearly indicate • how leaders will be developed • how community projects will increase citizen involvement
