Our communities are filled with hidden entrepreneurs with the innovative ideas and passion to drive change that come from lived experience. Yet without financial security and the right opportunity, they are held back from becoming the social entrepreneurs we need.
The time has come to change that.
Those creating solutions to our most pressing social problems are almost never the people experiencing them on the ground. To reverse declining public trust and rising social issues we must unlock our biggest untapped resource - the nation's hidden entrepreneurs.
Citizen First is a fully-salaried 12 month incubator that supports hidden entrepreneurs to drive social change hand-in-hand with their communities.
After seven years of design and delivery, our unique model is in its third iteration and scaling nationwide.
