In its fourth year, the Sandy Springs Citizens’ Leadership Academy (SSCLA) will offer a comprehensive and engaging curriculum that will provide participants with an opportunity to meet with the Mayor, City Council, and City staff and learn more about local government, civic responsibility, and community leadership. After the program, participants will have developed a deep understanding of the structure, functions, and responsibilities of their local government, providing the tools and knowledge needed to actively engage and take on leadership roles within their Sandy Springs.

The SSCLA will include eleven classes ranging from City Management and Recreation and Parks to Emergency Management and Signature Events. It will conclude with graduation at a City Council meeting in the spring.
