ACT Summer Camp - Community Organizing Training

Join with leaders from across ACT for a summer of trainings! As we build our new teams focused on the issues identified by our Listening Campaign, these trainings are designed for people who want to lead or participate in one of these teams. We will be focusing on the skills and tools needed to be an effective community leader who tackles systemic issues and brings more justice to our County.

This is a series of trainings that will build on one another. We understand that summer is a busy time, but please do not plan to miss more than 2 sessions. Some additional sessions might be added based on requests and interest.
