The successful mass movements we see happening today and all throughout US history did not happen spontaneously. They took organizing, foresight, and a special kind of knowledge.
The Advocacy & Public Policy Leadership (APPL) Certification is an intensive program for high school and early/non-social science college youth.
Students undertake four weeks of coursework on how to identify social issues and organize for them. They then apply what they learned through a four-week lab where they deliver an impactful project on a social issue, with the guidance of an experienced mentor.
This certification gives you the tools to not just understand a problem, but to actually manifest change. It focuses on three dimensions of organizing:
Theoretical: How do I identify problems in my community and society?
Capabilities: What can I do to solve these problems?
Mentality: How can I control my ego so I can make the right decisions?
