🎙️ New episode of the Accessible Podcast! Next Gen Leaders kicks off with Part 1 of our LEND Student Showcase.

George and Amelia sit down with Mizzou LEND trainees from the TIPS for Kids - MO LEND program to explore how their community leadership projects are making a real impact across Missouri. From celebrating decades of local support to creating more accessible resources for caregivers, these students are turning learning into action.

Together, we highlight how emerging leaders are addressing real-world challenges— strengthening communities, improving access to information, and centering families in the process.

Topics include:

- What it takes to plan a meaningful community event
- The impact of Boone County Family Resources over the past 50 years
- Barriers families face when navigating support systems
- How information overload affects caregivers
- Why accessible, user-friendly design matters
- Lessons learned from working directly with community partners
- How LEND trainees apply leadership skills in real-world settings
