The Kent Community Development Collaborative Leadership Institute is a virtual workshop to build skills and relationships together as a Kent community. The institute will focus on the basics of community organizing, racial equity, and making positive changes to the city of Kent.

This event was centered on building the capacity of residents to advocate for changes they wish to see, by putting into operation the community leadership, advocacy and systemic and policy changes the community needs to co-lead and implement.

KCDC focused on identifying the health needs of our community, as well as creating hope and energy around our communities’ ability to advocate for ourselves and others.

KCDC focused on identifying ways to improve access to economic development in the Kent Community  through collaboration with residents, business owners, training centers, financial and permitting institutions, and increased access to small business loans and permits for low-income and residents of color.
