Thanks to over 20 organizations, Ottumwa Leadership Academy participants got a good feel for what our community offers in the way of human, community, & health services. The Academy heard from several organization leaders including American Home Finding, SEIDA, Crisis Center, Ottumwa Regional Health Center, Wapello County Central Points Coordinator, and many more about the issues we face as a community and what their organizations provide to help address those issues.
A poverty experience provided a real-life scenarios for participants to try to navigate. Local organizations gathered in the ballroom of Hotel Ottumwa to help with this meaningful experience.
