Family Leadership Training Institute

FLTI graduates Georgina Chavez-Vasquez and Susan Brugman share thoughts on life expectancy discrepancies across Colorado.

The Family Leadership Training Institute (FLTI) is a 20-week program offered to Jefferson County adults and teens at no cost that develops effective civic leaders for healthy families and communities. FLTI graduates learn how to utilize information and resources, while working together with others of different viewpoints, to improve their communities.

Participants also complete community project as part of the FLTI experience, which provide an opportunity to get hands on experience and network.

See a list of community projects by the Class of 2018.

Classes will meet on Wednesday evenings in north Lakewood January through June 2019.

The program is free for participants and includes dinner, childcare, and Spanish interpretation during every class.

The Jefferson County Board of Health recently adopted a proclamation connecting citizen’s active engagement in civic life. View the proclamation.
