eight states in the DRA footprint<\/a>. Earlier this summer, DRA graduated 24 regional leaders from the 202@ DLI Executive Academy, marking the 17th year of DLI-trained regional leaders, composed of government, non-profit, and business professionals from all eight DRA states.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDLI Fellows become members of the Delta Leadership Network, which is comprised of more than 600 community leaders who advocate for regional collaboration, resource sharing, and innovative thinking. The DLI partners also partner with regional institutions of higher education to support and educate leaders committed to helping create jobs, build their communities, and improve the lives of their neighbors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Current partners include Arkansas State University in Jonesboro, the University of Louisiana Monroe (La.), and the University of Arkansas Sam M. Walton College of Business Executive Education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
