  • Joining the TORCH Leadership Program was one of the best decisions I’ve made — it pushed me to grow, connect, and lead with purpose. If you’re ready to step into your potential and be inspired, this is where your journey begins.

    Past Participant Testimonial

  • If you’re hesitant, do it. As someone who was also hesitant due to me being shy when I’m first meeting people, just do it. It’s better to do something and make the best of what’s to come rather than do nothing and regret what could’ve came of it. TORCH is likely to get you out of your comfort zone and help you create many different types of people who will also help to make your experience better.
