Shepherd’s House among 14 selected for six-month program
LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – Shepherd’s House, based in Lexington, has been selected to participate in the Stand Together Foundation’s Catalyst Program, management training and peer-to-peer learning
program to help nonprofits grow, scale, and replicate their success.
Shepherd’s House is one of 14 nonprofits chosen to join the growing community of more than 220 organizations in all 50 states, transforming the lives of more than one million Americans through bottom-up empowerment. Shepherd’s House was selected from hundreds of nonprofit organizations through an extensive vetting process and accepted into the program after rigorous evaluation.
Nonprofits that join the Stand Together Foundation’s Catalyst Program are recognized for disrupting the status quo, demonstrating “outside the box” thinking, and adopting community-driven, people-centered approaches. Program criteria also include proven results and potential for scale and cultural impact.
“This group of 14 leaders represents incredible innovation in the nonprofit sector,” said Evan Feinberg, executive director of the Stand Together Foundation. “They are already challenging status quo approaches and helping individuals transform their lives in their communities. Together, we hope to deepen their impact both in their communities and across the country.
“The Shepherd’s House is delighted and honored to have been selected to participate in the Stand Together Foundation’s Catalyst program. We are thrilled to be able to work with other members of the cohort and learn about the groundbreaking work they are doing across the country, while sharing the mission of Shepherd’s House and the hope it has inspired over the 30 years,” Jared Thomas, CEO.
The Catalyst program is a six-month management training and peer-to-peer learning program. The experience will equip Shepherd’s House leaders with new tools and approaches to deepen its impact and extend its reach. The program serves as a stepping stone to a long-term partnership with the Stand Together Foundation, including principles-based management coaching, leadership development, operational support and access to a community of entrepreneurial peers, influential philanthropists and business leaders.
Shepherd’s House will join 13 other organizations led by social entrepreneurs in its cohort experience which will officially begin on March 22, 2022. T
