A "...place that honors service"
The new National Center for Service and Innovative Leadership opened its first building last summer on the grounds of the Presidio, a former military post in San Francisco. "Instead of training people to protect the country, like the military
academies that have long been a part of America’s history, this one will
develop leadership skills for people involved in volunteerism and
national service," writes Philanthropy Today.
"The center—set up by the Presidio Trust, a federal agency charged with
preserving and repurposing the 1,491-acre site—will offer leadership
training; bring together nonprofit, government, and business leaders for
discussions; and establish a research program to highlight successful
approaches to solving community problems."
