Celebrating Our 2026 PLTI and CLTI Graduates!

This spring brought plenty of reasons to celebrate as PLTI and CLTI participants across the country completed their programs and joined a growing community of alumni.

From Hawaiʻi to Rochester and communities across California, graduates spent months learning, building relationships, developing community projects, and strengthening the skills they’ll continue using in their families and communities.

We’re proud to celebrate all of our newest graduates!
