About HOPE Programs
HOPE’s Programs Builds Community Power
We know that strong, inclusive leadership strengthens democracy. HOPE’s programs prepare and support participants—grounded in the Latina experience and lens—with the tools to continue their education, advance in their careers, engage civically, and advocate on behalf of their communities. Our trainings also emphasize building fellowship and networks of support, ensuring that leaders leave with the skills, confidence, and connections to create lasting impact.

HOPE Binational Fellowship
The HOPE Binational Fellowship is a program for outstanding executives from the United States and Mexico to catapult their leadership onto the national and global stage.

HOPE Leadership Institute
The HOPE Leadership Institute® (HLI) seeks to reimagine what California leadership looks like. The goal of the program is to train mid-career professionals in vital leadership and advocacy skills, enabling them to create fundamental change within their local neighborhoods and across California, benefiting HOPE Leaders and all communities.

HOPE Regional Institute
Building on the success of HOPE’s statewide and national leadership development programs, our Regional Leadership Institute is designed for local leaders who want to build their skills and network to influence public policy. Focused on Los Angeles, the Inland Empire, the Bay Area, Central Valley, San Diego, and Imperial Counties, regional leaders will work to improve education, healthcare, and economic development, advancing equity and dismantling the barriers to our communities’ success.

HOPE College Leadership Program
The HOPE College Leadership Program (HCLP) creates a network of support for first-generation college students and recent grads across the United States. Students learn about launching meaningful careers and developing their political voices — with guidance from leaders and solidarity with one another, every step of the way.

HOPE Youth Leadership Program
Through the HOPE Youth Leadership Program (HYLP), low-income, first-generation high school-age students prepare for college and learn to advocate for their communities alongside peers and mentors who support them in achieving their personal and academic goals, and achieve financial self-sufficiency.
