PROGRAMS
The Safe Return Project is achieving more with our strategic policy initiatives than ever before. With that understanding comes the responsibility of training the most underserved and underrepresented members of our community. The Safe Return Project's leadership programs are unique in that we acknowledge our communities’ whole selves and do not discriminate in developing their leadership and preparing them to be civically engaged.

We want to empower leaders that will advocate and speak truth to power, analyze and put together data to tell the story of truth and light the path for others to follow in their footsteps as they boldly lead us to a new future and way of living.
