This is a fully-funded professional development opportunity. Applications will be competitive, as there is capacity for only 50 participants.

The institute will be based on design and materials developed for the English Learner Leadership and Legacy Initiative (ELLLI). ELLLI aims to equip a new generation of EL education leaders with an historical perspective and practical skills to further advocacy and action work at the local, regional and state levels on behalf of ELs and their families. (SEE: http://www.ellli.org/ ), The Institute features some of the state’s top EL authorities as well as current ELLLI Fellows and Mentors.
