Short excerpt from a YouTube video where Micaela (a NobleReach scholar) discusses the significance of state and local leadership, arguing these leaders are closely connected to community issues, offer lessons for federal policymaking, and provide a source of optimism about public service. The speaker expresses enthusiasm for NobleReach’s related work.

So much momentum in this country happens at the state and local levels. Leaders in those communities are so plugged in to their, to their, to the issues that matter to their communities. I think there are a lot of lessons that can be learned from that work that taken up to the federal level. And I also think it's just been, again, another source of optimism for me to see the work that gets done at those levels. So I'm really excited to see Noble Reach doing that work.
