Meet the 29 young fellows handpicked for Leadership Delaware’s 2020 cohort

The future is looking bright in the First State: Leadership Delaware, the nonprofit that offers professional development to young, local leaders, announced its 12th class of fellows this week.

The yearlong program connects its cohorts to notable Delawareans who share their expertise during issues-focused forums on topics ranging from the economy to health care to corporate governance and beyond.

The end goal: growing their careers while working to grow Delaware, too.
