- Describe the challenge you want to address:
- Everyone in our community equates civic engagement only w/ voting. Especially in the challenging 4 years to come. People need to learn more about what civics is in general, how to navigate government (what level of government do you go to w/ what problem, & how to advocate & organize yourself to bring about the changes you want to see.
- What is the solution to the challenge?
- We need a program that includes an intergenerational civics training that teaches participants about past movements, building block associations, power mapping. How to distinguish propaganda from fact, what each level of government does what, who your electeds are what is your responsibility to know & research. Participants would build their own campaigns
