The RISE Program includes:
- Twice monthly virtual seminars that explore career development, build knowledge about the social impact sector, cover essential leadership skills, and introduce the fundamentals of design-thinking.
- Networking with a diverse community of other nonprofit and social impact professionals to provide opportunities for connection, collaboration, and building social capital.
- Mentorship and support from social impact professionals during the program.
- Peer learning with groups that meet regularly to work on skill development, offer mutual support, and expand upon workshop topics together.
- Access to additional resources through INP’s active and diverse network. This includes learning from other leaders including current students, alumni, faculty members, community partners, and funders.
