COMMUNITY OUTREACH
THROUGH LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT COURSE
Each year, on each IECC campus, the Leadership Development course designs, plans, and implements a community service project. Everything from a Saturday in the park event to fundraisers for local animal shelters, the students in Student Support Services learn what it takes to give back in a big way to their communities.
