LEAD NC

LEAD NC exists to seek out, encourage and cultivate a new generation of community and civic leaders for North Carolina. We focus on leadership development for North Carolinians who strongly support the following ideals:

• All of North Carolina’s children deserve access to a quality and equitable public education that is adequately funded, as guaranteed by the state Constitution.
• Both private enterprise and government are essential for creating opportunity and growth, and our economy should work for everyone, not just those at the top.
• In order to provide energy that is critical to North Carolina’s economic growth and well-being, we must develop cleaner, more renewable forms of energy while protecting our natural resources and ensuring a healthy and safe environment for current and future generations.
• North Carolina citizens have the right to accessible and fair elections free of unnecessary obstacles and intimidation.
• People have the right to decide if and when they will have a child, and everyone has the right to parent the children they already have in safe environments and healthy communities.
• The unique mission and purpose of government is to promote the public interest and help create a high quality of life and community well-being.
