Anyone interested in launching a community action initiative is welcome to apply. We work specifically with individuals in the early stages of developing their project, as well as those who need support identifying how best to address an issue in their community. Our free virtual program offers expert guidance and hands-on support to help participants clarify their ideas, develop a plan, and create a strategic path forward.

Our program provides participants a free one-on-one session with an experienced coach who offers guidance, practical advice, and helpful resources to support brainstorming, planning, and launching a community action initiative.

We do not provide funding; however, we do offer guidance on how to seek funding when necessary and recommend known funding sources for participants to explore.

Our program does not help participants obtain new job opportunities. Our coaching service solely helps participants move forward with their own ideas for community action.
