Programs & Initiatives

We are called BE! @ because we strive to create programs and initiatives that cultivate the growth of being wherever you exist. We do this through the development of organized solutions and strive to provide them wherever there is a need. To be able to accomplish the things that we do and seek to continue to do, we have to always ask not only ourselves but everyone we meet and seek to work with, "What does it mean to truly BE? What does it means to BE! @?".

 

Things don't change until we as individuals take the time to see ourselves and acknowledge our own power. Our organization seeks to be a link in the connection to that power and a bridge to the communities not only live in  but seek to grow within.

"Everyone Is Equally Responsible for Changing The World"

Youth Leadership & Development In Focus

BE! @ Community Initiatives believes in developing the voices and leadership of young people. We offer and develop specialized programs that serve as a safe-haven and an alternative to gangs, drugs, and other activities that oftentimes lead young leaders down a path that is often difficult to get out of. We are developing a network focused advocacy, as well as drafting and developing policies and practices to make changes in communities across the country.

​

We don't want to silence the voices of young leaders but rather strengthen, refine, and broaden them. BE! @ Young Leaders are focused on sharing ideas, creating solutions, and then putting those solutions into action to support the needs of communities and the growth of the governments, schools, agencies and partner organizations.

Workforce & Professional Development Initiatives

BE! @ Community Initiatives is focused on developing, supporting, and collaborating with community leaders, companies, organizations, and educational institutions to help to advance human skills across diverse communities to better support the global economy. We work to provide training and resources that help to bridge the gaps that are often seen in communities of color and within LGBTQ+, veteran, senior, and disabled communities.

 

We are particularly focused on developing relationships and programs that create public-private initiatives that seek to target industries where diversity is often lacking and fair wages are rarely at average or above average statistical figures within these communities.
