Catching up with some members of the inaugural Democracy Collective Incubator Program
Eight months ago, Cleveland VOTES launched The Democracy Collective Incubator Program (DemCo), a 9-month long experiential leadership program designed to expand and build the participants’ capacity for--and commitment to--equitable civic engagement.
On April 20th the DemCo participants had their final session. Two members of the cohort--Ronaldo Rodriguez Jr. and Elena Nail--kindly offered to talk about their experiences as well as walk us through their activation projects. We bet by the end of this post you will want to apply to be part of the next DemCo Incubator!
