Equity Unleashed Fellows Program
The Equity Unleashed Fellows Program is a pilot initiative that bridges the opportunity gap for BIPOC young adults in Los Angeles. Through a participatory action research model, Fellows gain critical skills, lead community research, and co-create solutions that promote inclusive economic growth. As the cornerstone of LeadersUp research and insights collection, the program amplifies youth voice and positions them as co-designers of systems that reflect their lived experiences and drive equitable access to high-growth careers.
