Neighborhood Leadership Academy
The City of Tallahassee offers the Neighborhood Leadership Academy (NLA) to equip residents with the knowledge, resources, and networking opportunities to help become effective neighborhood leaders. The NLA is an instructional and interactive program designed to empower residents with specialized knowledge about how their local government operates.

Sessions are held one day a week from 6:00 - 8:00pm at various City facilities.

Interested applicants must be:
