Sprint into action with our fast-paced training programs for disability advocates.
Creating policy change can feel like running a marathon. Sometimes, however, we need to sprint into action. We offer opportunities for leaders to learn and take action within four weeks. This model consists of self-paced modules, technical assistance, and one-on-one learning support.
Training Sprints are perfect for self-advocates, family members, and community allies who want to advance their advocacy skills in a self-paced format.
Participants will practice their advocacy skills through experiential learning activities. Each sprint will also provide participants with a resource they can use to support their efforts after completing the training. We are offering the following training sprints for the duration of 2025. These self-paced trainings will be available soon — keep an eye out or subscribe to our newsletter for updates!
