Over 1,800 alumni have graduated from Long Beach Leadership programs. For more than a quarter of a century, Leadership Long Beach has informed, activated and connected a network of engaged community leaders to better serve Long Beach.
Leadership Long Beach programs promote principled leadership to organizations and people who want to make Long Beach a better place to live and work. Leadership Long Beach informs participants on the city’s challenges, connects them with community leaders and inspires them to make an impact.
Leadership Long Beach is a catalyst to move our diverse and growing community forward. Its alumni form a network of community leaders who actively serve California’s 7th largest city. They meet the challenges and hopes of Long Beach through leadership programs, community class projects and volunteer service activities.
Leadership Long Beach became the first nonprofit organization to receive the key to the city from Mayor Robert Garcia on April 3, 2018. This accomplishment is a reflection of the nearly 30 year history and the work in the community done by the more than 1500+ alumni.
