Flinn-Brown Civic Leadership Academy
The Flinn-Brown Civic Leadership Academy helps expand the cadre of future state-level civic leaders with the knowledge, skills, and commitment to address Arizona’s long-term issues. It is designed for Arizonans from all walks of life and perspectives who want to serve—whether full-time or part-time, paid or unpaid—as members of a state board, commission, or advisory council, an elected official, a state government executive, or a policy advisor.
The Flinn-Brown Academy is a nonpartisan, applied program that brings knowledge of Arizona, public policy, and politics together to enhance civic leadership, expand public service, and promote decision-making for the common good. Civic leadership, as used in this statewide program, is the capacity to identify, analyze, and address issues through the collaborative efforts of citizens, private, public and nonprofit organizations.
