Welcome to LEAD-UAC© 

Welcome to this blog focused on Leadership, Education, Action, and Development of Ukrainian-American Communities.  The blog will include articles related to US-Ukraine relations and is intended to attract motivated, qualified young professionals to advocate the interests of the Ukrainian-American community, to strengthen and promote the US-Ukraine relationship that enhances the security and the image of the United States and Ukraine in support of freedom, peace, advocacy, a sense of identity, and unity of purpose.

We hope this blog will encourage young leaders to step forward and join us in Chicago and Illinois, and we hope it can serve as a model for other communities.   We will invite leaders from the US, Ukraine, and other countries to contribute articles.  Contact us at leaduac@gmail.com if you are interested in joining a group of young Ukrainian-American leaders and sharing an interesting journey of collaborative advocacy. 

We wish to express our thanks to UCCA Illinois Division for providing a platform for this project.
