Building Leadership
The ILA is the first program inclusive of Indigenous leadership principles. The differentiating factor for this program is that it is not for just Tribal leaders, it's for emerging Indigenous leaders in Arizona and nationally. The ILA program started in January 2022 with seed funding from Arizona Public Service (APS). By collaborating with APS, various schools at ASU, and professors, we created a brand and curriculum that attracted emerging Indigenous and community leaders from Arizona and nationwide. This signature program is committed to building the next generation of Tribal leaders.
