National Committee for Leadership Development
The National Committee for Leadership Development works directly with LJRs to help them develop their chapters! They are in charge of training JB leadership, and they create the programming for the regional training workshops, Chapter Development (CD) Weekends, and the National Junior Branch Meeting (NJBM)! Each NCLD member acts as a liaison to a different region. The NJRs serve as the chairs of the National Committee for Leadership Development.
