New Leaders Council (NLC) - Dallas is a chapter of the New Leaders Council national 501(c)(3) that works to recruit, train and promote the progressive political entrepreneurs of tomorrow — trendsetters, elected officials and civically-engaged leaders in business and diverse industries who will shape Dallas' future landscape. NLC-Dallas convened its first fellowship class in January 2018. The NLC Fellows are successful in their industries, risk-takers, and progressive advocates. Fellows must commit to one weekend per month for five months in which each Fellow, along with 15-20 of their peers, participates in trainings on topics from messaging to finance to political management. NLC-Dallas is creating an exciting network of individuals, highly-skilled in working together across Dallas to improve the progressive infrastructure and ensure strong democracy, social justice, and equal opportunity. New Leaders Council is a 501 (c) (3) public charity dedicated to educating a new generation of leaders and to providing those leaders with the tools they need to succeed. NLC does not support or oppose any candidate for public office and serves only as an educational leadership training ground.
