2. Review PDF and have answers prepared with your co-leader from your group.

3. Complete application with your co-leader when you both have 30 minutes to an hour to answer, review, and submit.

It is requirement to have two co-leaders that represent the organization to be considered for the S.I.C. Funded Cohort. Below, you will list and provide information on those two co-leaders that will directly participate in the S.I.C. program.

Note: The second leader can be in a more developmental position (for example, a current rockstar volunteer looking to step-up their role).

These two required leaders will be responsible for the following:

1) Attending the virtual Orientation Webinar on October 24th from 5-6:30PMPST for application to even be considered.

2) Attending ALL Virtual Workshops in the 2025 Program year.

3) Meeting virtually monthly with a Skate Like a Girl Mentor.

4) Meeting virtually and reporting back regularly to the S.I.C. Program Manager.

5) Completing ALL required tasks assigned by the S.I.C. Program Manager.

5) Attending the S.I.C. in-person orientation from January 21st-25th, 2025 in Portland, Oregon.

If you are not ready for this, that's totally okay! You can request to join the S.I.C. Slack server for now which means having access to all resources except for funding and direct mentorship - and no requirement to complete this form. If this is more of interest, please reach out to S.I.C. Program Manager, Sima, at sima@skatelikeagirl.com for next steps.
