2026 Community Development Institute in Louisiana

February 17, 2026 - February 20, 2026

Description

Community Development Institute is returning to Louisiana in 2026! 

As a satellite site of CDI Central, we are excited to host this training in the state of Louisiana. 

At CDI Central in Louisiana, we provide all three sessions of training in one year for a small cohort of 30 engaged citizens. 

The dates are: Feb 17-20 (Year 1); June 8-11 (Year 2); September 28-Oct. 2 (Year 3)

The institute builds the capacity of individuals and communities to positively impact economic and social development. This is achieved by expanding individual’s ability to identify community assets, set goals, encourage collaboration and partnerships with stakeholders, and bringing together groups of people to respond to a broad range of economic and quality of life issues.

Be a part of this training that creates communities with robust economies, a flourishing quality of life, and diverse and engaged citizen leaders. By sponsoring or attending the institute, you are reaffirming your (or your business') commitment to training that leads to healthy and vibrant communities.
