The Local Innovation Lab (LIL) is a pilot program of Local Innovative Works, in partnership with Southern Oregon University, to develop a self-sustaining, repeatable model that bridges universities and the underserved communities surrounding them while developing the leaders our communities need tomorrow.

The internship program has three components:

1. Paid internships that offer skills and network-building opportunities.
2. Coursework to develop professional and leadership skills that empower future independence and capabilities.
3. Proof of capability and professional network building – participants come away with extended social/professional networks and project deliverables for use in future job searches.
