2022 Lab Cohort Application

Thank you for your interest in joining an Innovation Lab cohort! We're grateful you are taking this next step on behalf of the church or non-profit ministry in which you serve. Applying to participate involves two stages: 1) Complete this application by May 31, 2022, to help the Lab learn about you and the church/ministry where you serve, and 2) if selected to move forward, join the Lab staff for an informal conversation via Zoom to get to know you more and learn about your hopes for innovating within your ministry context. Churches/ministries who are accepted into the cohort will be notified on a rolling basis. 

The Lab cohort will launch in September 2022 and end in February 2024. Meaningful and sustainable innovation takes time so, before applying, we ask that you discern whether you and your church/ministry can make an 18-month commitment to participate fully in the process.

The full cost for the program is $3999. We want to ensure that all churches/ministries who have a desire to participate are able to do so. The Innovation Lab has financial assistance available for potential cohort churches/ministries. Please indicate in the question below if you'd like to receive more information about financial assistance.

Innovation Lab cohorts are open to ALL ministry areas seeking to innovate, not just youth ministries! We're available to answer any questions you may have. Don't hesitate to reach out to innovation@cymt.org.
