Congratulations to the Leadership Henry Class of 2026!

Last night was such a great evening celebrating this class and all they have accomplished this year.

Leadership Henry is more than just attending class days. It is about learning the ins and outs of Henry County, building relationships, and seeing firsthand how many people and organizations work together to keep our community moving forward.

This class has shown up, asked questions, made connections, and brought their own unique strengths to the table. That is what leadership is all about.

We hope each of you carries this experience with you, the lessons, the people, the conversations, and the reminder that strong communities are built by people who care enough to stay involved.

Congratulations again to the Leadership Henry Class of 2026. We cannot wait to see what you all continue to do for Henry County.

Health Care Day with the Henry Leadership class was such a great experience. We had the opportunity to visit Piedmont Henry, Kaiser Permanente, and Southern Grace Hospice, and gain insight into the incredible work being done across our community.

Each visit offered a different perspective on care, compassion, and service, and we’re grateful to the teams who took the time to share their knowledge and stories with us. Henry County is fortunate to have such dedicated health care partners.
