UU Leadership School Network(UULSN)

The Unitarian Universalist Leadership School Network (UULSN) provides a forum for representatives of the UU Leadership Schools to share resources and information. The first Unitarian Universalist Leadership School was held in the Pacific Northwest District in 1975 "to serve the needs of the Pacific Northwest District member congregations by increasing the supply and distribution of leadership talents. In each of our societies whether ministered or not, there is a great and continuing need for people who will undertake the programs and activities that make membership in that society worthwhile and fulfilling."

The UU Leadership School concept has grown and there are now 11 UU Leadership Schools in North America and one in Great Britain. Since 1975, over 3,000 UUs have been involved in the schools. All schools are similar in content, including focus on Organizational/Leadership Development, Theology/Religious Values and Heritage, and Worship. All utilize a variety of learning formats which include large and small group work, with the emphasis on participatory learning, creating a climate in which all gain confidence and expertise in the totality of the church leadership experience.

We now have UU Leadership Schools throughout the continent and beyond:
