We're looking for Ambassadors who not only have a passion for our community, but who are ready to show their commitment through thoughtful, authentic engagement that helps build our community.

Please take your time with this application and answer each question with care.

Your responses help us understand your voice, your motivation, and your ability to support others in a personal and compassionate way. We're not looking for perfect grammar or polished essays. We're looking for you. Take the time to show us who you are and why this role matters to you.

Why do you feel you would be an outstanding HOPE Summit Ambassador? Please include any experiences with mentoring and/or networking outside of HOPE Summit.

What have you learned from previous HOPE Summits that you would like to share with new attendees? How are your experiences helpful in mentoring first-time attendees?
