Leadership Training for the Changemakers of Tomorrow
Grassroots School is an annual leadership workshop for people who want to learn practical skills they can use to build power in their local communities. Our learning will be grounded in the radical belief that everyone has leadership potential and capacity to be a changemaker in their community.
The workshop will be a mix of virtual and in-person sessions that introduce participants to different aspects of grassroots leadership including relationship building, structuring teams, strategizing, deploying effective actions, as well as clarity on one’s personal purpose and mission.
Sessions will be structured to build on each other. Throughout the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to practice and reflect on these aspects of leadership with the support of experienced organizers and facilitators. Participants will have a chance to connect and build relationships with one another within a tight-knit learning community.What Our Past Students Have To Say…

This was truly incredible!! The organizers, facilitators, and participants were all genuine, intelligent, and powerful people all trying to do something to better the world we live in. It was so powerful to be in an intergenerational space with so many amazing folks, and come up with clear targets and tactics to create the world we want to live in.
