The Communities Project Leadership Collective
A practical and affordable year-long approach to leadership development
What is the Communities Project Leadership Collective?
Organizations working in addiction, recovery, and behavioral health are facing intensifying leadership challenges—burnout, turnover, emotional fatigue, and limited resources—at the same time that changes in federal and state funding have made one-off, high-cost trainings harder to justify. The Communities Project Leadership Collective was created in direct response to this reality. Instead of relying on isolated trainings tied to uncertain funding cycles, the Leadership Collective offers a practical, cost-effective, year-long structure for leadership development that strengthens capacity across an entire organization in a sustainable way.
Through a predictable monthly rhythm of workshops, coaching, evaluation, and optional consulting and training based on level, the Leadership Collective helps organizations maintain consistent leadership support, build shared language and practices, and demonstrate an ongoing investment in their workforce. This model reduces the burden of single large trainings, supports supervisors navigating high-intensity work, improves communication and trust, and helps organizations continue developing leaders—even during periods of financial uncertainty—while aligning with funder and board expectations for sustained workforce development.
