Please watch this video from Elizabeth, Founder of REI.

The Ripple Effect Institute

Our high-touch leadership accelerator for experienced changemakers who are ready to stop holding everything together alone—and start building structures, communities, and strategies that hold them in return.

  • "Since joining REI, and for the first time since we founded our non-profit, we actually have very strong teams, and core teams, that are making progress, including with grant writing and an annual development plan. This group is my guiding light."

    —Lisa

  • "My part in this impactful work is all because of what I’ve learned here. The teaching on resilience, shared leadership models, community building– these are all things that I’ve brought to our group, and it has made a real difference."

    —Carla

  • "Thanks to this community and the materials, I’ve been able to come up with great narratives to describe what we’re doing. I’ve developed the skills to build our work and tell our story well."

    —David

  • "With the help of the group, and a lot of encouragement from Elizabeth, I gained confidence and have come to enjoy talking about the importance of what we've created. Lastly, I have worked with two other Ripple Institute Members on special projects for the film combined with their activist work, a true "Ripple Effect" and community beyond what I anticipated when I first signed up."

    —Julie

  • "The learning and guidance I’ve received from REI has fundamentally changed my work as a mental health therapist. And improved my life as a human being. I go out into the world each day more equipped and resilient, and my community and clients are all benefitting from that work. I am honored to be part of the empowering, impactful and inspiring community that is REI."

    —Michelle

  • "This is an inspired platform and course. I am still relatively sane due to this magical group."
