UAB’s newest group of community advisors is made up of young professionals offering their support to the university. Called Leadership UAB, the group’s annual membership class will consist of 40 to 50 people between the ages of 25 and 40 selected to represent a cross-section of Birmingham’s vibrant community.
“The organization’s mission is to help educate young leaders about UAB’s vision, mission and ongoing endeavors in teaching, research, community service and patient care,” said Shirley Salloway Kahn, Ph.D., vice president for Development, Alumni and External Relations. “Members selected to participate bring experience from various corporate, civic and volunteer backgrounds.
“By building relationships and fostering a better understanding of UAB, we hope to engender support and help develop dedicated ambassadors and volunteers,” Kahn said. “The members of our charter class promise an outstanding start.”
