About Leadership Forward

Leadership Forward is the alumni association for Leadership Roanoke Valley (LRV). With a mission to continue the engagement of alumni beyond their year in LRV, and support their integration into positions of leadership in the region, it is a great way for LRV graduates to stay involved.

As an incentive to stay involved, LRV graduates are automatically enrolled in Leadership Forward, and annual dues ($45) are waived for the first year.

LRV graduates have already demonstrated their commitment to professional development and the region by their participation in LRV.

Leadership Forward provides the next step. Networking and professional development continues through LF's scheduled programs and annual leadership conference. Leadership Forward can help facilitate alumni's involvement in leadership positions in the region as volunteers, board or committee members, or participant in short-term projects to benefit local not-for-profits.

As an added benefit, Leadership Forward members continue to develop and enjoy the relationships they began during Leadership Roanoke Valley.
