Unleashing the Activist Within and How to Make a Difference with BoricuActivatEd | Online

About this event

In celebration of LatinX Heritage Month we’re excited to partner with BoricuActivatEd civic engagement workshops to provide a unique opportunity to collect and share expertise while helping others.

During this 4 hour workshop you will learn how to go from spectator to actor in your journey to pursue your personal goals. Engaging civically is a privilege that like democracy, can never be taken for granted.

By the end of the workshop, you will develop an understanding of the skills and techniques required to be an effective citizen lobbyist, and learn how to apply these skills and techniques in the real world.

Takeaways

• An understanding of the concept of “policy” and how policy is informed through the legislative process.
