Learn About Our Programs
NELP
The Nehemiah Emerging Leaders Program, a selective 10-month professional development program, prepares its Fellows for effective and ethical leadership in their companies and communities.
NELP Sr. Fellows
Our NELP senior fellows graduates have taken more than 300 seats on boards and commissions, and sit at the tables of leadership within our regional corporations. Our NELP family has grown to include emerging leaders from all backgrounds: Latino, Asian American Pacific Islander, Black, white, male, female, non-binary and LGBTQ.
NELP Youth
While the NELP program caters to the needs of mid-career professionals, we are piloting a similar program designed for a younger audience, for those enrolled in or just graduated from college, who are looking for their opportunities to learn business skills and become part of the leadership community while giving back to the community. Still under development, this program will offer similar professional development with content tailored to those who have yet to grow a career
ChangeMakers
The Sacramento Bee’s Equity Lab and the Nehemiah Emerging Leaders Program produces an annual list of Change Makers working in and for the Black, AAPI and Hispanic communities, a roster of people who are transforming Sacramento and the greater region. We aim to elevate a class of leaders characterized by their commitment to making the Sacramento region fairer and more just.
