Connected to Lead

Our mission is to create space for people of all ages to develop meaningful connections while strengthening the leader within them. Our organization is addressing the need to develop resilient leaders from diverse backgrounds to create change for themselves, their families, and their communities. Our organization separates itself from other organizations by providing programming that is accessible, accommodating, focused on developing resilient leaders, and emphasizes special populations. Through accessible programming, we provide accommodations for people with both physical and learning disabilities. We offer ASL, large print, closed captioning, etc. Additionally, we offer language interpretation for those who need it. Our programming is available for people of all ages. We believe that it is never too for someone to be the leader they are purposed to be. We prioritize developing resilient leaders. No matter a person’s background or environment, we all have the ability to lead and make positive change. Our programs are offered at no-cost to the participants. This provides an opportunity for people who identify as low-income or those who can’t financially invest in a quality leadership development program to develop as resilient leaders without the stress of another financial obligation. Lastly, we prioritize developing programming for special populations that include girls and women; Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC); youth in foster care, on probation, and in the justice system; and disabled persons.
