The Onion Foundation is partnering with OUT Maine to provide a comprehensive cohort program for professionals to develop their skills around implementing inclusive LGBTQIA2S+ programming!

Three separate cohorts will be offered this year: on April 26, August 22, and October 9.

The cohorts will begin with an in-person training day covering foundational best practices, a self-assessment, and goal setting for each organization. After the in-person training day, cohort participants may attend regular virtual follow-up meetings to check in on group progress towards goals and cover specific topics more in depth. The cohorts work best with a team; we strongly recommend 2-3 members from each participating organization to attend together, whether that includes leadership staff, programming staff, or board members.
