Creating Community Excellence
Leadership Monterey Peninsula Leadership…
There is a stirring in all to make a difference—to contribute and join with others to make
our community, our world and ourselves strong and healthier. This spark is the promise
of leadership in us all. Leadership is not measured by position or organization—it is a
personal commitment and inspiration.
Leadership is not defined, rather it is lived uniquely by all who dare to give beyond themselves. A leader leads not by thwarting others, but by empowering others to see that they too can make a difference. A leader works openly through differences and unites others around a common goal.In the highest sense, leadership is integrity. It is those of us expressing qualities of leadership who build our communities and bring solutions to the problems that disturb us. —Author Unknown

This booklet is intended as an ongoing reference for LMP 10-month program graduates. We hope it will serve as a roadmap to various pursuits in doing good work in the community and make it easier to access resources, organizations and individuals.
We thank Bobbi Long, Associate Professor, School of Information Technology & Communication Design and her two design class students, Francisco Murillo and Brian Aviles for their enthusiasm and commitment in making this booklet a reality. Fran and Brian worked very hard to create a format and design that is both very artistic and practical at the same time. Thank you all!

The Volunteer Center, United Way Monterey CountyYuri Anderson, Coordinator, The Volunteer Center acts as a clearinghouse for nonprofit organizations to list all their volunteer opportunities and for individuals looking for volunteer work to register their skills and experience.
211 Referral LineThis toll-free number is set aside for public assistance by providing referrals to health and human services and for disaster assistance. Check out the United Way website for additional information about 211 and to access the extensive list of nonprofit organizations. This can be very helpful if you are looking for an organization that addresses a particular issue you care about and where you might want to offer your volunteer time and effort. Contact that organization directly through their website.
BoardConnect! BoardConnect! is an annual event that is set up similarly to a job fair. As an individual, you have the opportunity to visit a number of nonprofit organizations at information tables to learn about their needs for board members.

This event is a collaboration of the Community Foundation for Monterey County, United Way Monterey County Volunteer Center, Leadership Salinas Valley and Leadership Monterey Peninsula.
Service ClubsThere is a wide variety of service clubs dedicated to providing projects in the community to positively impact our quality of life. Contact clubs directly through their websites for: Rotary, Kiwanis, Optimists, Soroptimists (for women), Lions, etc.

Commissions/Committees/BoardsCities and the county use commissions, committees and boards to do the work needed to bring forward ideas and recommendations to the governing bodies for discussion and decision-making. Generally, vacancies onthese bodies are announced in the media and there is an application process. If you have interest in a particular issue, contact the City Clerk of the city in which you reside. That person can also tell you what vacancies existon the various commissions. Serving on a commission can be a good experience to prepare you to run for public office.
Elected Office—City & CountyWe need a larger pool of individuals running for local public office. Contact the Monterey County Elections Department for details about how to complete the paperwork required and the deadlines to run for public office. Watch for information about trainings that might be available to increase your knowledge of what you need to know to run a campaign.
Civil Grand JuryThe Civil Grand Jury is an investigatory “watchdog” body created to ensure that the best interests of all citizens of the county are being served by local government. Responsibilities include examining all aspects of county government (including special districts) ensuring that all public monies are being handled judiciously and all accounts are properly audited. In general, guaranteeing honest, efficient government in the best interest of the people. For more information and to apply, call 775-5400 x2081 or www.monterey.courts.ca.gov/grandjury.
