VILAS Vision Leadership Program
The VILAS Vision Leadership
Program is a program for residents of Vilas County offered by UW-Extension through its Lac du Flambeau and Vilas County program offices.
The purpose of the program is to help citizens of the county:
- Enhance, develop and practice
leadership skills
- Identify and explore community
issues and challenges
- Promote an appreciation and
awareness of Vilas County’s
resources, institutions, cultures
and concerns
- Expand business and
community networks
- Encourage involvement in
leadership roles at work and in
the community
Each year, a new class of participants meets the first Wednesday of each month from December to June. Participants must commit to attending all 7 sessions. The first six sessions are day-long sessions with a dual focus: an
examination of issues facing the
county and development of leadership
skills.The seventh session (June) is a late afternoon-evening evaluation and celebration session. All participants will work in teams on
community service projects.

We want to know what you have been doing and how VILAS Vision has affected your life!
Words can inspire, support, challenge, direct our next steps, and
chart the way to new possibilities for the future.
Leaders are the people who change words into action.
Leaders create the inspiration, bring people together, and set
the direction that leads to a better future.
