Next Now

Helping students build confidence for what comes next.

Next Now is a Little But Tall youth program that helps students build confidence, explore new possibilities, and begin thinking more boldly about their future. Through age-appropriate conversations about innovation, technology, and future-ready thinking, the program gives young people broader exposure to ideas, careers, and opportunities they may not see every day.

It is not a technical training program. It is an exposure-based, confidence-building experience designed to help students see that opportunity is within reach and that they have a place in the future they are preparing for.

What Next Now helps students do

Build confidence and motivation in young people

Introduce students to innovation, technology, and future-ready thinking in age-appropriate ways

Help students see that opportunity is something they can step into too

Encourage curiosity, self-belief, and a bigger vision for what comes next
