Join a diverse cohort of leaders determined to use their faith to create positive change in our world.
The Trinity Leadership Fellows program educates, inspires, and connects emerging faith, professional, and community leaders seeking to make a difference. Over the course of this two-year fellowship, participants sharpen their leadership skills, learn from experts in the field, and build lifelong supportive peer and mentoring relationships. They graduate from the program equipped with tools to heal divides, disrupt injustice, and strengthen their communities.
This non-residential, fully funded program is open to lay and ordained people of faith across various denominations and religious traditions. The next cohort will convene in person at Trinity Church in New York City in September 2025. During the first year, fellows take online courses to strengthen the core competencies needed for effective leadership. The second year of the fellowship is dedicated to implementing action projects. In September 2027, select participants will be invited to join the Trinity Society of Fellows, where they will join a global network of leaders faithfully serving their communities.

Program Overview
The fellowship consists of a learning phase and an implementation phase.
September 2025: During an initial weeklong in-person gathering at Trinity Church, fellows will meet their mentors and instructors. They will attend a workshop on how to use your faith and values to discern a unique leadership path. This discernment process will shape the rest of the fellows’ curriculum. The week will also include a course on community organizing. In 2025, new fellows will arrive on September 14 and depart on September 19. In-person attendance is required for all.
September 2025–August 2026: Fellows will engage in live online learning sessions with leading scholars and experts on core competencies for effective leadership. These include courses on adaptive leadership, conflict transformation, change management, church and non-profit management, and social entrepreneurship, all taught from a faith perspective and informed by individual fellows’ discernment exercises and formation goals.
September 2026: Fellows will reconvene at Trinity Church for a weeklong gathering to meet the next cohort of fellows and present implementation projects.
September 2026–August 2027: Fellows will implement their programs with the assistance of their peers and mentors, meeting with their cohort for continuous support.
September 2027: The cohort will be inducted into the Trinity Society of Fellows.
