The Delfino Leadership Institute (DLI) is a prestigious 1 year leadership program where workers are chosen as leaders of their organizations and work together to become leaders of our movements.  DLI was launched in 2015 with a cohort of over 30 workers, the program includes 4 training sessions and activities in between sessions.

DLI is an intensive program for developing workers as leaders.  Participants will learn the best qualities of organizing and base building, creating structures of new leaders, planning and leading campaigns, developing groups and management skills, facilitating trainings.  Workers learn to value, motivate, and bring out the best in themselves and the people with whom they work with.

We are now accepting application for the 2016 DLI class, please contact us at nyworkerfederation@gmail.com for more info.
