Leadership Matters...
Rev. Dr. Leanne Ciampa Hadley is an Ordained Elder in the United Methodist Church and a specialist in the area of Children's Spirituality. She is President and Founder of First Steps Spirituality Center. In December 2007, she received her Doctor of Ministry in the area of spirituality and children and teens from United Theological Seminary in Dayton, Ohio.
Through listening to and learning from children and teens over the course of 25 years, Rev. Leanne Hadley has developed amazingly effective healing methods that set First Steps apart. Her hands-on approach and one-on-one time with children make her ministry one that is "hands-on" rather than just a "study of."
