Snapped a pic this morning of our incredible Leadership Worcester session designers—the dedicated volunteers who help bring our program to life.
Our session designers invest their time, expertise, relationships, and deep knowledge of our community to create meaningful learning experiences for each Leadership Worcester class. Their commitment helps participants better understand the issues shaping Worcester and equips them to become informed, engaged civic and community leaders.
This role is one of the most impactful ways to contribute to Leadership Worcester, and we're grateful for the passion, thoughtfulness, and collaboration each designer brings to the program.
Thank you to everyone who joined us today and to all of our session designers for helping shape the future of leadership in Worcester. 💙 💚

We are heartbroken by the sudden passing of Leadership Worcester alumnus Walter Jovel, Class of 2021.

Walter brought incredible positivity, kindness, and passion to everything he did. Whether talking about soccer, martial arts, food, or his deep love for the Worcester community, he had a way of making people feel connected and seen.

Through his work with the Hope Coalition and his decade of service as facilitator for the Worcester Youth Leadership Institute, Walter made a lasting impact on countless young people and on our city as a whole. His dedication to mentoring, leadership, and community building will not be forgotten.

We extend our deepest condolences to Walter’s family, friends, colleagues, and all who had the privilege to know him.

Funeral and memorial information will be shared below. ❤️
