Tomorrow’s Present is a youth leadership project of The Leadership Center at Cardinal Stritch University in partnership with the House of Peace. It began in 1998 with a generous grant from the Lilly Endowment to foster leadership and a sense of vocation in young people.
Integrating learning, reflection, leadership and service, the Tomorrow’s Present Project provides support, motivation and training and it facilitates personal growth for youth and adults.
Our core programs involve middle school and high school groups from churches, schools and organizations in the Milwaukee area, engaging them in peacemaking, advocacy, service, hope-building, and interfaith relationships.
