OPTIONS program helps participants get smart about critical issues impacting women and girls, and learn to use their work, wealth and wisdom to make ours a community where women and girls can thrive. The 10-month program, featuring monthly two-hour sessions, includes guest speakers, field trips, community exploration and leadership development.
The OPTIONS program is an expertly designed, intentional program that has permanently impacted the way I view my community and the powerful women within it. Through the experience I now have a deeper understanding of the challenges women and girls face and the inspirational organizations and people answering that call. The people I met during the program also have a lasting impact--I love my cohort 24 sisters and I am so excited to be welcomed into the bigger OPTIONS alumnae universe.
This program offers an accelerated fundraising certificate tailored for leaders of nonprofits that address issues impacting women, girls and their families, combining in-person sessions, CFRE credit, and customized curriculum.
