Power
Our capacity building programs weave networks and support community members working to create change.
Winona Area Kitchen Table
The Winona Area Kitchen Table is a cohort of local community members who have faced housing instability or homelessness. The team brings their own lived experience and invites cross-sector stakeholders to work together on solutions to housing issues that will truly work in our community.
Lived Experience Leaders
This cohort leadership program trains and supports local residents with leadership skill-building, training and workshops on civic engagement, and mentorship to support their individual leadership goals and vision for community transformation. This program debuted in fall 2020, and is now celebrating itβs fourth cohort.
Engagement is for Everyone!
