Rizzo named to Hispanic Leadership Development Program Advisory Board


Kudos to Mary Mendez Rizzo, counselor, DCC Student Services, who has been selected to serve on the steering committee for United Way's Hispanic Leadership Development Program. 

HLDP is an award-winning development program that identifies, trains, and promotes the placement of Hispanics in policy-making decisions of community organizations.  HLDP strives to encourage community awareness, leadership, and networking in the local Hispanic community. The curriculum for the program includes topics on communication, leadership, decision-making, conflict resolution, and board membership responsibilities. As part of the training sessions, participants are required to complete field projects in which they make recommendations for actual challenges facing selected not-for-profit agencies in the greater Rochester area.  Mary will begin serving in her role in January.
