Leadership San Francisco

Since 1985, LSF has developed leaders - community trustees - who work for the common good. Armed with experience gained through the LSF program, graduates have contributed significant leadership to community efforts. Within each program class, LSF seeks to develop a group selected from the public, private and nonprofit sectors, representing the ethnic, cultural and lifestyle diversity of our community.

Flagship Program:

Each year, approximately 60 future community leaders are selected to participate in LSF's 10-month flagship program. Participants are challenged to increase their understanding of the environment in which they live and work, and to learn how to respond effectively to community issues. They are part of a unique network of concerned citizens, taking an active role in influencing quality of life in the San Francisco Bay Area.
