Ground Level

People in their first years of nonprofit, civic, or community work.

You were handed real responsibility with little training, unclear expectations, and no roadmap. Ground Level covers the parts of the job nobody explains, one session at a time, with a small cohort going through the same thing.

What you'll build

  • A map of who depends on you inside your organization and what they actually need
  • One working system for something you've been handling with no structure
  • A simple way to write emails and requests that get answered
  • A map of your organization's community relationships, and one real step toward building one
  • A 12-month growth plan, reviewed by your peers
