Leadership New River Valley enhances participants’ leadership skills and encourages the application of what is learned each month in their work. This program goes one step further and provides the class with the opportunity to give back to the community through a Leadership Legacy project. In 2021, Sleep in Heavenly Peace - New River Valley has now built 450 beds. The Legacy Project works with a local non-profit to build capacity for their respective vision and mission. The class members learn about themselves, apply principles of change management, and expedite applying learned principles in a controlled environment provided by the local non-profit. The Chamber uses the Phillips Model of ROI to calculate the benefit to the non-profit and the community.
