The Frontline Leadership Institute allows participants to experience and explore the critical, vital contribution Frontline Supervisors provide to the agency, the individuals they support and the direct support and direct service professionals they work with. Participants will have the opportunity to network with other Frontline Supervisors from across the State of Alaska sharing their experiences, their challenges and the truly amazing work which they accomplish.
