ANNUAL
TAKE ACTION CONFERENCE
BE PART OF AN EVENT LIKE NO OTHER
Every year, the Take Action Institute will hold a conference convening high school and college students who desire to take action in their communities. We will teach them the skills they need and equip them with tools to build sustainable projects.
Over a two day period, students will be inspired to dare to begin telling their story and engaging in activism. They will be exposed to keynotes and facilitators who have started movements, peaceful activations, and are expert in the areas of diversity, equity and inclusion. Students will receive tangible tools that they can use to take action effectively and consciously in their own communities.
We are proud to partner with Universal Studios who will share their secrets to story telling success.
Students will attend this conference with an open mind and desire for change and will leave equipped to immediately take action.
EVENTS ALL YEAR LONG
TRAINING AND MENTORING
IN-PERSON & ONLINE ENGAGMENT
Regular events including virtual seminars, in person meet ups, and hybrid events will be held to ensure year-round engagement. Members will be surveyed regularly to ensure the institute has the pulse on the help they need most. Trainings will be developed
from these responses and the needs of the community.
Conference speakers and facilitators will be asked to be mentors to students. Students will also be trained to become mentors over time as their projects grow and thrive.
A directory of all members will be available to everyone to encourage collaboration. A private Facebook group will be developed to enable members to share ideas and request help with specific topics of concern.
ONLINE MATERIALS
