MMC Initiatives
Transforming Women, Transforming Communities
Core MMC field initiatives are real-world initiatives that allow MMC participants to engage deeply with their communities, applying what they’ve learned to create a lasting, positive difference in their local areas and themselves.
Each initiative is designed to develop the MMC fellow as a mentor, guide, and resource for her community while bringing the community forward as well. The projects encourage women to step outside their comfort zones, think critically, and find solutions to real challenges their communities face.
Enjoy this look at the varied initiatives our MMC students have launched over the years!

“I have really learned how to sit and think about the progression of a thought, about cause and effect, how to plot a chain reaction: crafting a mahalach of where we want to take someone and where the forks would be in that road and how we could branch out or circle back from there.”
