The difference has been an emphasis on learning. The Junior League offers its members extensive training in areas such as leadership and organizational development, community needs assessment, strategic planning, communications, advocacy and fundraising.
The result: Junior League members know their community well - and know how to get things done. They pragmatically assess problems and solutions, motivate volunteers, and create new partnerships in the public and private sectors. Most importantly, they lay the foundation for real and lasting change.
"I credit the Junior League for giving me the opportunity and training to become a leader."
United States Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor (Past-President, Junior League of Phoenix)
