CHANGE AGENT PROJECT (CAP)

The Change Agent Project is an opportunity for you to combine multiple streams of theory and practice into a cohesive, beneficial, community-centered project. This is an exercise in intentional relationship building, leading-from-behind, and working in styles other than the dominant, top-down delegation tradition. Your CAP will be a product of your relationships.
