LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE FOR TOMORROW (L.I.F.T.)

 

 

Our Leadership Institute For Tomorrow (L.I.F.T.) aims to help people develop the community support, communication skills, conflict resolution techniques, and character development they need to chart a course to success in the world.

 

This applies to our neighborhood and our partners. We bring people together in a dynamic training and equipping environment to foster growth and healthy steps. 

​

ROC also partners with local businesses to provide NO COST internship opportunities.  A business partner receives a youth worker (16-24 years old) for 240 hours of work funded by the WOIA federal program. ROC mentors and trains these interns for workplace success. Contact our Deputy Director Arodi Sanchez for more information. arodi@reachingourcity.org
