Everyday Leaders is an 8-session, 16-hour training program, complemented by 4-6 hours of independent learning. Through interactive workshops, real-world applications, and guided reflections, participants develop the tools needed to engage communities, lead collectively, and center equity in their work. 

Everyday Leaders is designed to build equity-focused, collective leadership skills through a structured learning experience, covering topics such as: 

• Collective Leadership: Exploring shared power, decision-making, and the values of interdependence in leadership. 
• Systems Thinking: Understanding systemic inequities and how leaders can foster more just and inclusive communities. 
• Equitable Decision-Making & Accountability: Practicing fair and transparent leadership approaches that prioritize those most impacted. 
• Community Engagement & Coalition Building: Learning effective organizing strategies to build trust, transparency, and shared responsibility. 
• Using Data for Social Change: Understanding how data can clarify community concerns and inform action planning. 
• Self- & Community Care for Leaders: Developing sustainable leadership practices that prioritize well-being and resilience 

This initiative creates a space of collective learning and co-creation in which a multiracial and intergenerational cohort can reimagine authentic relationships and build on community assets together.

The Everyday Leaders curriculum includes affinity-group work, independent reflection, interactive and experiential learning that complements “classroom” instruction.
