The Center for Leadership Innovation (TCLI), in collaboration with the Consortium for Hispanic Agencies (CHA) and its fiduciary agent, the Detroit Housing Development Corporation (DHDC),  as our Local Co-Training Partner, and a Michigan Latino Advisory Committee, has launched the Michigan Latino Nonprofit Leadership Academy in late 2010.

With support from Michigan-based foundations, Kresge Foundation, Charles Stewart-Mott Foundation and The Skillman Foundation, the Academy supports the growth of Latino leaders to contribute to the sustainability and effectiveness of Latino nonprofits as stewards of diverse low-income communities in Michigan. 

Through a competitive application process, 16 Michigan-based Latino nonprofit organizations serving low-income communities were selected to participate in the Academy.

At no cost to participating organizations, each nonprofit in the Michigan Latino Nonprofit Leadership Academy receives:

  • Leadership Workshops for the executive directors and emerging leaders of 16 Latino-led Michigan nonprofits.  For newly created or emerging organizations that may not yet have an executive director, board presidents can attend the workshop in lieu of an executive director. 

  • Tailored on-site consulting and technical assistance for the full board and staff 

  • Mentoring and coaching aimed at the specific needs of each organization 

  • Extensive reading assignments and follow up work to support the goals set by each organization.
