TLT-Tomorrows Leaders Today (TLT) was founded in 2019. In June of 2020, the TLT Leading Leaders Intern Program was established. Working with 39 colleges/universities and numerous high schools, 19 internship positions at TLT have been created. This experience is earning participants real life work experience and, in many cases, educational credit. These are all remote positions which makes this opportunity accessible to all. We continue to add additional positions.
Even with all the restrictions COVID 19 had brought us, we were able to create a TLT Learning Center with free and low cost online courses. In 2022, Participants in over 104 zip codes initially utilized this service in the first six months of its release.
TLT's Unlocking the Future Program was created to provide basic real life soft-skills, higher education, and career readiness sessions, at no cost, to underserved youth, eighth-grade and older. The classes each complete a community project.
Our Small Business Entrepreneur 101 for youth 14-17 and adults 18 and older, interested in learning how to start a small business can attend a virtual webinar or 3-day workshop.
TLT Youth Leadership Academy is a program where youth experience emerging community and business leaders who encourage them to learn about, to question, to dream about, and to care for their community. Each session explores leadership dynamics, social service organizations, servant leadership, community growth and education, financial literacy, community health and safety, community government and community culture and leisure. Each member will work with their class building on and using their leadership skills to complete a class project that will benefit the community.
We are Platinum Seal Guidestar Transparency approved and could not have done this without our community partners and volunteers who gave 10,823 hours in 2022.
