“From the very beginning, I was met with a community of innovative thinkers and changemakers who didn’t just believe in my vision but they actively poured into it.

This experience has reminded me that when you're surrounded by people who are invested in your growth and your mission, it becomes that much more possible to create meaningful, lasting impact.”

- Clementina Jose, from Black Girls Advance, Cohort 2025

“I expected to be in a supportive environment where the other teams would encourage each other, and that's exactly what this space was and more! The group was supportive, motivated, and determined to cheer each other on - this was my favorite part of the cohort.”

- Angie Tamayo León, from Digital Decode, Cohort 2025
