'''Rising Leaders Program''' is a three-year leadership incubator program that is part internship, part rite-of-passage program. Participants advance through Rising Leaders in leadership cohorts, consisting of young Black men from across Portland, beginning in the summer after their freshman year in high school. In year one, participants learn foundational leadership and professional development skills. In year two, they are placed in a professional internship. In year three, participants engage in the Black Star Homecoming Experience in which ambassadors travel to Ghana, West Africa for a two- week immersive international leadership experience. Rising Leader is free to all participants and features no barriers to entry based on academic performance or extracurricular activities. Ambassadors receive daily meals during the program, haircuts, a business suit, and a professional photoshoot.

The '''Spring Leadership Forum''' consists of a seven-day leadership trip to Washington D.C.
