White Papers
Addressing the Needs of Our Community
KLA class members develop “White Paper” projects which address various needs in our community.
These White Papers are presented each Spring at the “Project Proud” session. Many of the projects that have been presented over the years have been implemented and have provided a real value to the community. Each year, KLA awards the Jean Northenor Project Proud Award towards the completion of one or more of the projects.
