The Mujeres Poderosas Fellowship (Powerful Women) helps young adult Latina women thrive personally, academically and professionally as they grow as leaders and make an impact in the community.
- Explore your leader identity. Take stock of your strengths and weaknesses, values and behaviors, and the ways in which you influence others.
- Build professional skills. Build communication skills and grow teamwork skills. Develop strategies for resilience, and more.
- Grow your network. Initiate a mentor relationship, connect with leaders, mentor youth and join a peer circle.
This women’s leadership program uses an empowerment model to focus on leadership development and female empowerment topics. The program is geared towards current college students and recent college graduates.
The program connects participants to professional women and leading local leaders who share their stories of overcoming adversity, achieving higher education, and their professional success. Throughout the leadership journey, fellows will participate in one-on-one and team mentoring to equip them with the means to succeed in their personal and professional lives. This semester-long program requires fellows complete individual and group service projects. Fellows work as a team to provide mentoring opportunities and leadership development for middle and high schoolers. Students who have not previously had the opportunity to develop their leadership skills are encouraged to apply.
