Step Into Action: Step Up’s Programs for Teens and Young Adults
Step Up strives to have girls and gender expansive youth reach their greatest potential.

As the new school year starts, many teens have already adjusted to new class schedules, teachers, and may find themselves with some extra time after school if they have not joined a club or sports program, yet. The good news is that organizations like ours at Step Up exist and offer students career coaching, mentoring, and networking opportunities. At Step Up, we offer programs that are designed to have today's youth succeed and find their passion.

Below is a list of free, virtual fall programs we have curated:

Fly Together
Our series of four mentorship programs in collaboration with Birdies provides high school girls and gender-expansive teens the opportunity to build relationships with peers and mentors and gain leadership skills that will support their career pursuits. www.suwn.org/flytogether

Luminaries Career Coaching
Luminaries Career Coaching is amatched mentoring program for young adults ages 18-23 which offers free, professional coaching to help jumpstart dream careers over the course of three months. Those who participate will receive monthly career coaching from Step Up's network of mentors will take part in three mentoring sessions, during which they will set goals and define what success looks like for them. www.suwn.org/lcc
