ARROYO GRANDE— Assemblymember Dawn Addis (D-Morro Bay) participated in the South County Chambers of Commerce 2024 Leadership Government Day, engaging with a diverse group of community members over the weekend.
"It was an honor to have Assemblymember Dawn Addis join us on our Government Day for Leadership South County," said Kassi Dee, Leadership South County Program Supervisor. "Assemblymember Addis' commitment to public service and community engagement inspires all of us to strive for excellence and to lead with integrity. We are grateful for her support and encouragement in our shared mission to empower individuals to make a positive impact in South San Luis Obispo County."
The event aims to enhance participants’ leadership, consensus building, and critical thinking skills, empowering them to serve effectively in both the public and private sectors.
"True leadership is about commitment to our communities - always striving to uplift those around us," said Addis. "South County Leadership is a phenomenal program with an excellent student cohort. I was honored to share my story of going from teacher to Assemblymember with this cohort."
Established in 2019, the South County Chambers' 10-month Leadership program selects 22 participants each year to engage in a comprehensive leadership development experience. The program includes a two-day retreat and nine development days, covering critical topics such in business, manufacturing, arts, education, housing, and agriculture.
