Signature Programs of the Lights On Collective (LOC)

The Next Steps Initiative is a leadership development program that was piloted in 2020. It is dedicated to helping build the next generation of leaders. The Initiative engages a select number of young adults, ages 18-30, through a 10-week online leadership development session. The program culminates with a “Pitch Session” that allows participants to present an idea or concept for ongoing development to a group of sponsors for monetary or mentorship support.
