Every year, area businesses and organizations submit project proposals for Leadership Kenosha participants to work on in teams. Participants may choose a project that complements their passion and/or a project that offers them a skill building experience. Projects are completed between October and May, and teams are expected to spend some time to meet and work on their projects outside of the Leadership Kenosha program days.
