SUMMARY:Be the Spark Training
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Be the Spark! \nParticipants can expect an opportunity to learn\, reflect\, connect\, and build  community and movement organizing skills. .You will leave with a practical toolkit for public advocacy\, with a blueprint for inviting people to take concrete action on the issues that matter to you\, and with a framework and narrative for movement building towards justice and liberation. \nThe work of building a more just and sustainable world is collective work – no one person or organization can change the world alone. We are part of a movement of people who care passionately about this world and the people who live in it. Our ability to influence change at the Capitol\, help our neighbors transition into more sustainable energy\, and repair the harms of centuries of greed and extraction is dependent on people like you and your willingness to organize your friends\, neighbors\, and communities to live differently in this world. \nBe the Spark offers training and conversation that will help you grow your capacity to organize\, build your skills through connection with other passionate people\, and help you inspire others into climate justice work. In each session\, you’ll get tools and practices that will help you inspire your people\, focus your purpose\, and identify tangible actions for successes you can celebrate. \n\nFacilitated by Julia Nerbonne (MNIPL Executive Director) and Analyah Schlaeger dos Santos (Director\, Youth N Power)\nLunch\, coffee\, and snacks provided\nThe focus of this training will be intergenerational with robust youth participation\n\nInterested in attending?

Accordingly\, we are also offering a Sunday training date. Click here to learn more about our Sunday date. \nCLICK HERE TO RSVP! \n  \n
