    Susana Vasquez, with LISC Chicago, offers remarks as the Civic Leadership Academy Fellows are honored during a reception at the Gleacher Center Thursday, Jan. 22, 2015, in downtown Chicago.     (Robert Kozloff/The University of Chicago)All around the city, Chicagoans are working to create new opportunities to be involved in civic growth. And the Civic Leadership Academy, a new program with the University of Chicago, helps spur this growth. CLA is building the next generation of leaders in nonprofits and government through a rigorous Certificate program and a Capstone Project at the University of Chicago.

    Last night, we were honored to join the University of Chicago’s Office of Civic Engagement to welcome their second cohort in a celebration that kicked off 2016 with civic engagement in mind.

    See below for some of the top tweets from the event:

    We're very excited @shelleystern. They're impressive. #UChiCLA. https://t.co/k8zYbrMpZj
