BE THE VOICE…

 

JIE training takes an intentional and holistic approach to advocacy, infusing young leaders with knowledge, applied experiences, and on-going mentorship. This free training program runs from January 2024 to March 2024 when training turns to action. To ensure that all JIE participants have access, workshops will be offered in-person and virtual.

Youth will develop and implement an Advocacy Action Plan that may include, but not limited to, Community Service, Public Speaking, Digital Advocacy, and Editorial Commentary. Check out this Op-Ed from February 2023 written by JIE students to see how JIE helped them be a voice for public education.
