Greater Minnesota

We host our forums at the Anderson Center in St. Cloud, as well as convenient locations across Greater Minnesota where participants can focus on their development.

In program year 2008–2009, we will be hosting forums in Grand Rapids, Brainerd, St. Cloud, Hutchinson and Rochester.

We invite inquiries from organizations interested in co-hosting an Anderson Center Forum in their community.

Scholarships Available Through Minnesota Initiative Foundations

Throughout Greater Minnesota, the six Minnesota Initiative Foundations are collaborating with the Anderson Center to provide scholarships to Anderson Center Forums.

These scholarships can help smaller organizations, non-profits, and high potential individuals and organizations that might not otherwise be able to afford full tuition for a Center Forum.
