ZOOM. By the end of the program, participants will have

PRAXIS CONVERSATIONS: LEADING IN THE CONTENTIOUS
ELECTION SEASON AHEAD
With the 2024 election less than a year away, the
Walker Leadership Institute, in partnership with the
Bridge Alliance, launched the Praxis Cohort program.
This program is focused on training and supporting
faith leaders to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly
as they lead in the contentious election season ahead.
Ongoing training and the opportunity to be a part of
cohort-based communities of practice through the 2024
election season are offered as a continuation of the
Praxis Cohort work. Cohorts will convene around
common contexts and concerns.
