Generation Thrive graduated its third cohort of Bridging the Bay, Igniting Leaders of Change, presented by Rocket Lawyer to provide capacity-building and resources for executive and c-suite leaders guiding Bay Area pre-kindergarten through 12th-grade youth-serving nonprofits. We are inspired by the commitment of 16 nonprofit executives who came together to refine their leadership skills and transformative peer learning. Spanning three months of intensive leadership development training, participants gained skills in self-awareness, communication, critical thinking, inclusion, and collaboration, and received executive coaching sessions from industry leaders including Charley Moore, CEO and Founder of Rocket Lawyer. This cohort represented organizations focused on youth development, educational equity, mental health, and violence prevention. Bridging the Bay | Rocket Lawyer
