For Individuals

People come to the Lightstand Project for different reasons. Some are looking for learning opportunities or community-based programs. Others need help with a specific piece of work, such as writing or editing, or are exploring resources they can use on their own.

Individuals connect with the Lightstand Project through a small number of defined paths. These include participation in community engagement programs, requesting professional services delivered online, and accessing publications or other materials. Which path makes sense depends on what you are working on and how you want to engage.
