Every March you will find roughly 35 individuals from across the Commonwealth and from all walks of life meeting in one room to embark on a 9-month journey known as the Political Leaders Program (PLP). The next nine months will take them to every corner of Virginia, from a dairy farm to a coal mine, and from the Port of Virginia to the U.S. Capitol Building.
