The UYWI Organizational Leadership program is a 5-month cohort experience for executive leaders of nonprofits serving urban youth. Through personalized coaching, strategic training, and a peer community that truly gets it, you will develop a clear Strategic Storyline for your organization, build real capacity, and lead with greater health and impact.

Our coaches are urban practitioners who understand the unique challenges you face. They bring not just expertise, but lived experience leading in the same communities you serve.

Past cohort leaders have seen up to a 500% increase in organizational capacity. This is what happens when the right leaders get the right support at the right time.

Cohort 4 is now open. We only have room for 6 organizations, and the application deadline is March 20, 2026.
