EPLA Scholars First to Participate in City of El Paso Neighborhood Leadership Academy

The NLA, Neighborhood Leadership Academy is a 20-week course that gives participants an intimate look into city government.  Participants receive first-hand information about City services and programs through comprehensive presentations from City department leaders, and on-site field trips to various public facilities.

Mr. Monteros is a two-time participant and sponsors two scholars, Juan Baez (8) and Braulio Bejarano (8). This was the first year that the program was offered to youth.
