about the community leadership institute
Every two years, the Community Leadership Institute (CLI) brings together a dynamic mix of residents, youth leaders, affordable housing advocates, construction professionals, bankers, investors, and municipal officials. This unique gathering creates a collaborative space where participants can listen, learn, and grow—drawing insights from expert trainers and one another.
Hosted by the NeighborWorks Florida Collaborative, the CLI has become a cornerstone event for advancing community-driven solutions.
- In 2022, the CLI was held in Tampa, Florida.
- In 2024, it convened in Orlando, Florida.
- The next CLI is scheduled for 2026, with the location to be announced.
