LEADERSHIP LACKAWANNA CORE
PROGRAM CLASS OF 2019
“
One of the lessons that the
Leadership Lackawanna Core
Program taught me is that you
don’t always need all the answers
or to be running the show, you
can be a leader just by being
present. I have learned that we
can make a huge impact with
small gestures and that the
combined effort of the group
with a common goal is more
powerful than the individual.
– Kevin Morgan, Leadership
Lackawanna Core Program
Class of 2019
The highlight of the Leadership Lackawanna
Core Program experience for many
participants is the group project. One of
this past year’s projects was to equip both
the Multi-Purpose and Therapy rooms at
St. Joseph’s Center’s Trinity Child Care
Center with necessary equipment to meet
children’s needs but, as some participants
discovered, the project also equipped
them with newly-discovered leadership
skills. “My involvement in this project was
transformational on many levels,” said
team member Sherry Frable. “I will forever
find great satisfaction in knowing that by
using our group’s collective knowledge in
business planning, fundraising, and project
implementation, we were able to establish
two sponsored rooms and a playground area
that will benefit the children at Trinity Day
Care for years to come.”
