The Dothan Alumni Cohort is an innovative group of individuals who believe in wanting better for Dothan.
“Humanitarian, artists, nonprofit-geared minds that can work in a collaborative space. And this is just not city government peace, it’s whatever we can to make Dothan a better Dothan,” Justice Black said.
City officials are invited to the community initiative from August 11 through 13. During this weekend initiative, they will connect and socialize with other young professionals. Alumni will then use their knowledge from other cities to brainstorm and collaborate in groups. “We are wanting to provide things for people to do. Ask anybody whether they are 30 or 60, and they will tell you the same thing. They are wanting the same thing, especially the younger generation,” Dothan Mayor Mark Saliba said.
Mayor Saliba wants Dothan to be home for residents, and with the help of this new cohort, he can see it happening in the future. “Feedback and possibly encourage them for being a part of our community and moving here and living here, and raising their families here,” Mayor Saliba said.Their next weekend initiative will be November 10 through 12.
