2025 SEE Learning & Implementation Cohort

Nonprofit organizations in East-Central, Iowa are invited to participate in the upcoming Supportive Environments for Effectiveness (SEE) learning and implementation cohorts. While exploring the SEE framework with coworkers and peers, participants will consider the different organizational challenges they face (e.g., high turnover, board disengagement, and volunteer retention). Each organization will select a focus area relevant to their work and will try out a small experiment to shift their work environments in an attempt to address that challenge and bring out the best in their people.

We are currently accepting applications for our 2025 programs. Please contact ambassadors@redirect.org with any questions.

Program Benefits

Participating organizations will receive:

  • 15+ hours of interactive training and collaboration (see session dates here).

  • Grant funding of up to $5,000 for your nonprofit’s time and resources implementing SEE

  • Individual, personalized coaching and support

  • Activities and tools to support your SEE learning

“The SEE framework has helped us to understand that something as huge as cultural change does not happen at the flip of a switch. It truly is the collective of many small changes that come together to create changes in mindset.” -Amy Guardado, Executive Director of House of Hope

In 2023 and 2024, reDirect awarded funding to 38 organizations through our SEE cohort programs.

"Some of the exercises in the cohort help you generally stop, and peel back layers on an issue to uncover and recenter the intention of the work...really focusing on 'the why' and the meaning people find in the mission." -Hillary Frey, Executive Director of STL Youth Jobs

Application Requirements

In order to apply, please have at least one person from your organization:

Process

"The focus on overwhelm and some of the strategies to address that head-on, instead of just accepting that as a 'fact of life' when you're in a nonprofit, was helpful for me, and something that I'm trying to integrate more into our office culture." - Jessica Watson, Executive Director of earthday365

Schedule & Locations

reDirect’s cohort-based programs were launched in Denver, CO in 2016. We have since expanded to include the greater St.Louis, MO area, East-Central Iowa, and Oshkosh, WI. 

Our programs allow organizations to participate in both virtual sessions and in-person gatherings, strengthening their connections to the local nonprofit community. The full 2025 SEE Learning & Implementation program schedule for East-Central, Iowa can be found here.
