Throughout the year-long program, participants will travel to Birmingham, Huntsville, Montgomery and Mobile to engage in presentations and participate in discussions that encourage critical, thoughtful assessments of key issues facing Alabama. The cohort will also explore and debate state initiatives to boost its prosperity and address key priorities for the state. 

“It is an honor to be selected for the 34th class of Leadership Alabama,” Nash said. “I am elated to be able to get to know and work with other committed Alabama leaders who are invested in creating positive transformations for our state.”
