Cardinal Community Leaders Program The Cardinal Community Leaders is a Center for Civic Leadership initiative which provides an opportunity for undergraduate students to deepen and broaden their leadership capacity through service. The goal of this program is to expand the possibility for students to learn leadership skills from extended service experiences both locally and globally.
