In an effort to develop future community leaders in the region, the Chamber established the Leadership Main Line program in 2002.
Leadership Main Line provides an intensive five-month curriculum that involves the participants in learning experiences designed to enhance the infrastructure of the Main Line. Graduates benefit personally and professionally, but the big winner is the community as more qualified leaders are developed.
