Leadership Riverside increases participants’ knowledge of local governmental and institutional programs. The Greater Riverside Chamber of Commerce has sponsored this program for 16 years. The year-long program informs participants about a wide range of subject such as: local government, military and homeland security, culture and history, economic development, health, education, social services and recreation.
