Training Sprints

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, live sessions and technical assistance, and class networking. Learn more and pre-register for upcoming “sprints.”

Training Sprints are perfect for self-advocates, family members, and community allies who want to advance their advocacy skills in a fast-paced environment.

Participants will practice their advocacy skills through interactive training sessions. Each sprint will also provide participants with a resource they can use to support their efforts after completing the training. Register today to take the next step in your advocacy journey.
