Leadership Huron County opens applications for 2027 class

Adults who live or work in Huron County can apply by Jan. 31 for Leadership Huron County's 2027 class, a program with $1,000 tuition and monthly sessions from March through December.

The Huron County Growth Partnership announced the application opportunity Wednesday, encouraging local employers to sponsor participants.

The 2027 application packet says classes run from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., generally on the second Thursday of each month. The program begins March 11 and ends Dec. 9. The calendar is tentative, and attendance at the first session is required.

Participants study county issues, visit local organizations and develop leadership skills, according to the packet. Applicants are selected based on their completed applications, leadership potential, contribution to the class and ability to commit the required time.

Tuition is billed after acceptance and is due March 11. Limited scholarship assistance is available; applicants seeking help should notify program consultant Susan Root Moore when they apply.

Completed applications can be emailed to susanroot.moore@gmail.com or mailed to Leadership Huron County, care of Susan R. Moore, 320 Willow Drive, Plymouth, Ohio 44865. The packet says applications received after Jan. 31 will be considered only if space remains.
