We'll start with a retreat. Then, you’ll plug into Yo's committees, meet with mentors, and join workshops that push your thinking and sharpen your impact.

This is how you get involved with Yo. Our committees are where the planning and execution happen. As part of this program, you'll join a core committee and play a role in shaping programs like Camp, Residency, and our major events.
In-person gatherings at the start and end of the program help build cohort connections, introduce key elements of the program, and orient participants to the broader Yo! ecosystem.
Retreats won’t always be local. To deepen connections and expand perspectives, we host gatherings in different locations—including out-of-state. Each one is designed to immerse you in the larger Yo! network and community.
Group sessions offer space to check in, share progress, and reflect on what’s emerging across the program—with occasional guest speakers to introduce new perspectives.
Yo! Residency runs from September to June. The program is built to work with a full-time job while supporting your community involvement. See the section above for details.
