The Mujeres Poderosas Fellowship (Powerful Women) helps young 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. Participants are encouraged to develop their own individual, authentic leadership style, while building practical skills and understanding their own strengths. The program provides a space that encourages self-reflection and sharing to encourage participants to lead authentically, advance progressive causes, and achieve their goals.

You have an opportunity to form close bonds with fellow participants — creating an extraordinary community of female colleagues. The group will meet weekly to build leadership and community through skills-based workshops, a mentoring program, and networking. The program provides a forum for aspiring women leaders to share challenges, successes and strategies for leading, growing professionally and helping one another succeed.

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. The sessions provide enriching learning experiences and access to opportunities, information and resources.

This 6-month program requires fellows to commit to 5 hours a week to complete individual and group service projects. The program runs from January through June. Fellows work as a team to provide mentoring opportunities and leadership development for middle and high schoolers. Fellows also participate in the planning and execution of a series of women’s empowerment conferences. Students who have not previously had the opportunity to develop their leadership skills are encouraged to apply.
